Orange: measured by NOAA's sensor, last 24 hours (6-minute data, preliminary). Dashed: predicted tide, through the next 24 hours. The prediction contains only the astronomical tide; wind, air pressure and river flow move the real water level away from it.
Back Creek entrance, Nantuxent Cove is a subordinate station: NOAA computes its tides from Reedy Point with fixed time and height corrections.

On Tuesday, October 27, high tide at Back Creek entrance, Nantuxent Cove is at 10:48 AM (6.8 ft) and 11:20 PM (5.8 ft); low tide is at 5:06 AM (0.3 ft) and 5:58 PM (0.3 ft) (EDT, heights above MLLW). The table above lists the next 7 days.
The highest predicted tide in the next 12 months is 7.2 ft on August 2, 2027 at 10:33 PM. The largest tides fall a day or two after a full or new moon, especially when the Moon is closest to Earth.
Yes — on 89 days in the next 12 months the low tide drops below 0 ft (MLLW). The lowest is -0.9 ft on January 24, 2027 at 5:06 AM. Minus tides expose the most shoreline, which is why tide-poolers look for them.
Station local time (EDT at the time this page was built), with daylight saving time applied where the area observes it — the same convention as NOAA's own tide tables.
From NOAA CO-OPS, the U.S. government tide station network (tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov); the predictions are public domain. Back Creek entrance, Nantuxent Cove is a subordinate station: NOAA derives its times and heights from the reference station Reedy Point with fixed corrections. The curve between highs and lows is our interpolation. This page is not for navigation.
