About the tides at Solomons Island

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.1 ft. Water here rises and falls only about 1.1 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.2 ft, on Tuesday.

Predictions for Solomons Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Cove Point, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min later. For tidal currents, see Sandy Point, 0.5 mile south of.
