Editorial

About tides at Fort Carroll

A short guide to the coastline at Fort Carroll — geography, sea state, and what the tide is actually doing under your feet.

Fort Carroll sits on the Maryland coast of United States. The local tide pattern is moderate semidiurnal: from the gridded ocean model TideTurtle samples, the seven-day water-level range reaches about 0.7 m, with the bigger swings clustering around new and full moons.

For anyone visiting Fort Carroll — surfers, anglers, paddlers, beach-walkers — the tide chart matters in two ways. First, the time of high or low water decides whether the shoreline is exposed or covered. Second, the rate of rise or fall sets how fast currents move in and out of any inlet, harbour or rivermouth nearby. The page below shows both: the next high and low tide times for today, and the seven-day forecast underneath.

Heights on this page are gridded predictions from the Open-Meteo Marine model, normalised to Mean Sea Level (MSL). They are accurate to within roughly 15-30 cm on most days; on storm-surge days the actual water can run higher than the prediction. For safety-critical planning consult official hydrographic services; for everyday surf, kayak, fishing and walking decisions the chart is enough.

Spring tides — the biggest swings of the lunar cycle — happen around new and full moons (twice a month). Neap tides — the smallest swings — land on the quarter moons. If you want the lowest low tide of the month for tidepooling or sandbar walking at Fort Carroll, look at the seven-day chart for the spring tide.

Common questions

Tide questions about Fort Carroll

Quick answers to the most common questions about tide times, range, and water access at Fort Carroll.

When is the next high tide at Fort Carroll?

The next high tide time at Fort Carroll updates daily on this page from gridded Open-Meteo Marine predictions. Look at the highlighted next-high-tide chip at the top of the chart.

What is the tidal range at Fort Carroll?

Over the next seven days the modelled water-level range at Fort Carroll is about 0.7 m. Spring tides (around new and full moons) push the range above this average; neap tides (quarter moons) trim it.

Are these tide times accurate for navigation at Fort Carroll?

Open-Meteo Marine is a gridded global model — accurate enough for everyday surf, fishing, paddling and walking decisions, but not a substitute for an official hydrographic chart. Consult united states's national authority before relying on it for safety-critical use.
