Jersey Shore Tide Charts

What a tide chart can tell you
Times and heights
Predictions describe water level at a specified station and reference datum. Check the location and date you need.
Tides and currents differ
The timing of slack water is specific to each location. A high or low tide time does not identify slack current for your route. Read NOAA’s tides and currents guidance.
Swimming needs other checks
Use the local beach forecast, official advisories, and lifeguard instructions. Neither low tide nor calm-looking water establishes safe swimming.
For current hazards and swimming guidance, use the National Weather Service rip current guidance and our beach safety guide.
Planning a fishing trip?
Compare local operators for your dates, group, equipment needs, and weather terms. Confirm registry requirements for the exact vessel; use the inlet and species tide guides as additional planning research.

Tide chart questions
How do I choose a tide chart for my trip?
Choose the nearest relevant station, then check the date, time zone, and chart datum. Local beaches and back bays may differ from the reference station; use the town mapping and NOAA guidance for your location.
Does low or rising tide mean it is safe to swim?
No. Tide predictions describe water levels, not safe swimming conditions. Check the local beach forecast and official advisories, swim near an on-duty lifeguard, and follow their instructions.
Is slack current at the same time as high or low tide?
Not necessarily. NOAA explains that the relationship is specific to each location. Use current predictions for your route instead of assuming a tide height chart identifies slack water.
What if a chart does not load?
Open the station page or official NOAA tide predictions. Check the displayed dates before using cached or saved information; a screenshot does not update itself.
Can I use tide charts to plan a fall or winter visit?
Yes, for timing and location research. Also check weather, daylight, beach access, operator opening dates, and a sheltered backup activity. A tide time does not establish that an activity is safe or operating.
