About the tides at Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge, 8543024
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 4.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Pennsylvania stations on this site. 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 4.1 ft.
Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge, 8543024 is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge, 0.9 mi away. For tidal currents, see Mantua Creek Anchorage.
