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 2.9 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.3 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.9 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.7 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Tuckerton 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 2024 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Seven Island, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Absecon Inlet.
