About the tides at Stites Sound

Stites Sound has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 3.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 4.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.9 ft.

Stites Sound is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Ingram Thorofare, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Corson's Inlet Entrance.
