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 pattern follows the reference station at Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean. The average range is about 3.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.5 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.1 ft on January 23.

Stites Sound is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean: highs come about 49 min and lows about 64 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1979 to set up these predictions. 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.

Predictions are based on Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean.
