About the tides at St. Georges

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.5 ft. The average range is about 4.1 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 5.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.9 ft.

St. Georges is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Delaware City Branch Channel bridge, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min later. For tidal currents, see St. George Bridge, 0.1 n.mi. ENE of.
