About the tides at Seven Island
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.4 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock. On a typical day the water moves about 3.3 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.4 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.3 ft, on October 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 4.6 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 23.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Tuckerton, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min later. For tidal currents, see Absecon Inlet.
Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
