About the tides at St. Michaels

St. Michaels has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.1 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.9 ft, on Monday.

St. Michaels is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is St. Michaels, Miles River, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 43 min later. For tidal currents, see Deepwater Point, Miles River.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
