About the tides at Walpole

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Damariscotta River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The range is large, about 9.4 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 10.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on November 22, with a range of 10.5 ft. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 7.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 11.8 ft on December 25, and the lowest is −1.5 ft on January 23.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Cross River entrance, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Damariscotta River, off Cavis Point.
