About tides at Sandy Hook
Sandy Hook, NJ sits in the Jersey Shore, NJ region. Its tide predictions come from the Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock station (NOAA 8531680), a harmonic NOAA reference station, so predictions come straight from its own published constituents. 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 6.3 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.
