About tides at Kitty Hawk
Kitty Hawk, NC sits in the Outer Banks, NC region. Its tide predictions come from the Kitty Hawk station (NOAA 8651605), a NOAA subordinate station, so highs and lows are offset from a nearby reference gauge. This spot is an open-ocean beach, so the tide here is the surf-side tide — the one that matters for swimming, surfing, shelling, and how much dry sand you get. Tides here swing between about -0.6 ft and 4.4 ft (MLLW) over the next 30 days. The chart above is live, and the 30-day tide forecast below lists every high and low with heights, plus sunrise, sunset, and the moon — everything you need to time a beach day, a surf session, or a low-tide walk.
