About the tides at Toms River (town)
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. Water here rises and falls only about 0.8 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.8 ft, on October 9.
Predictions for Toms River (town) 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 1976 to 2016 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Silver Bay, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 49 min later. For tidal currents, see Point Pleasant Canal, north bridge.
