About the Tides at Ellsworth
Ellsworth gets two high tides and two low tides most days, both about the same size. On a typical day the water rises and falls about 10.0 feet.
Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Sunday, November 8, when the water moves about 12.1 feet. The lowest water is -0.4 ft on Sunday, November 8 at 4:27 PM, and the highest is 11.7 ft on Saturday, November 7 at 9:17 AM. A minus tide like that uncovers the most beach, flats and tide pools.
NOAA predicts the tides here from years of measurements at station 8413801.
