About the tides at Saybrook Point
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The average range is about 3.0 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 4.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.0 ft.
Saybrook Point is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting NEW LONDON, State Pier: highs come about 71 min and lows about 53 min later than there. The nearest other station is Saybrook Jetty, 1 mi away. For tidal currents, see Saybrook Channel.
Predictions are based on NEW LONDON, State Pier.
