About the tides at York Harbor

York Harbor has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Portland,casco Bay. The range is large, about 8.3 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 11.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 5.9 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 11.0 ft on December 25, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on January 23.

York Harbor is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Portland,casco Bay: highs come about 3 min and lows about 13 min later than there. The nearest other station is Fort Point, York Harbor, 0.2 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Fort Point.

Predictions are based on Portland,casco Bay.
