About the tides at Tuckerton
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 2.6 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.4 ft, comes on October 11, and the smallest, 2.8 ft, on Sunday.
Predictions for Tuckerton come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Seven Island, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Absecon Inlet.
