About the tides at Wasque Point

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.1 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Newport, Narragansett Bay. Water here rises and falls only about 1.0 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Massachusetts stations on this site. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.5 ft on September 2 and bottom out at −0.3 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Newport, Narragansett Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Edgartown, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 30 m later. For tidal currents, see Muskeget Channel.

Predictions are based on Newport, Narragansett Bay.
