About the tides at Saybrook Jetty
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 3.3 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Connecticut stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 4.4 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.3 ft.
Saybrook Jetty is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting NEW LONDON, State Pier: highs come about 71 min and lows about 45 min later than there. The nearest other station is Saybrook Point, 1 mi away. For tidal currents, see Saybrook Breakwater Light.
Predictions are based on NEW LONDON, State Pier.
