About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Dennis Creek, Route 47 bridge from the LEWES (BREAKWATER HARBOR) station: high tides about 1.20× the height, 121 min later; low tides about 1.20× the height, 90 min later.

Barrier islands, big bays, and river tides: Chesapeake and Delaware bays carry the tide deep inland, and a nor'easter can hold water in, or blow it out, for days at a time.
