About the tides at Sunbury

Sunbury has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. With a mean range of about 7.3 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.9 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.7 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.2 ft on January 23.

Predictions for Sunbury come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 2012 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Belfast, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 40 min later. For tidal currents, see Medway River at Marsh Island.
