Tide Chart
The table below shows predicted tide information for Cape Porpoise Harbor, Maine for the month of October, 2001. Tables like this are generated for locations all along the coasts of the U.S. The charts for each site may be very different, even for locations that are quite close to each other. This is because tides vary according to the shape and depth of the body of water as well as to the geographical location.
Tide heights in the table are compared to the average low water level for that location. A negative tide height indicates the water level will be below the average low water line.

Understanding tide tables and charts is quite easy once you understand a few key topics. The chart below will help you see how the currents move and just what to expect during the changes. The Oregon coast has its' share of rip currents and the unexpected "sneaker waves" so the rule of thumb "never turn your back to the ocean" can save many lives each year.
