About the tides at Westport Harbor

Westport Harbor has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 2.9 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Massachusetts stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 3.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.7 ft.

Westport Harbor is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Newport: highs come about 9 min and lows about 33 min later than there. The nearest other station is Hix Bridge, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 31 m later. For tidal currents, see Westport River entrance.

Predictions are based on Newport.
