About the tides at Sunny Point Army Base, Wharf no.1

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Wharf no.1, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 4.1 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most North Carolina stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 5.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 4.3 ft.

Sunny Point Army Base, Wharf no.1 is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Reaves Point, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later. For tidal currents, see Reaves Point, 0.3 mile east of.
