Mispillion River entrance is a subordinate station: NOAA computes its tides from Lewes (Breakwater Harbor) with fixed time and height corrections.

Moving water at dawn and dusk —

The current runs fastest roughly halfway between a high and a low tide. Many anglers prefer those hours when they fall near sunrise or sunset. This is a rule of thumb, not a fishing forecast.

What time zone are these tide times in?

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.

Where does this tide data come from?

From NOAA CO-OPS, the U.S. government tide station network (tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov); the predictions are public domain. Mispillion River entrance is a subordinate station: NOAA derives its times and heights from the reference station Lewes (Breakwater Harbor) with fixed corrections. The curve between highs and lows is our interpolation. This page is not for navigation.
