About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Birch Islands from the EASTPORT station: high tides about 0.94× the height, 59 min later; low tides about 0.75× the height, 73 min later.

Rocky shores and the country's biggest northern ranges: Eastport flirts with 20 ft, and the Gulf of Maine funnels weather as much as tide. Harbors here float — or sit in the mud — on the moon's schedule.
