About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Prince Point from the PORTLAND station: high tides about the same height, at the same time; low tides about the same height, 1 min later.

Rocky shores and the country's biggest northern ranges: Eastport flirts with 20 ft, and the Gulf of Maine funnels weather as much as tide. Harbors here float — or sit in the mud — on the moon's schedule.
