About the tides at Steele Harbor Island

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Steele Harbor Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Portland,casco Bay. Steele Harbor Island sees a mean range of about 11.2 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Maine stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 13.4 ft, comes on November 22, and the smallest, 8.9 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 14.7 ft on December 25 and bottom out at −2.3 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Portland,casco Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Shoppee Point, 9 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Moosabec Reach, east end.

Predictions are based on Portland,casco Bay.
