About the tides at Tolchester Beach

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 1.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 0.9 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Deep Landing, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Tolchester Beach, 0.33 n.mi. west of.
