About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Reaves Point from the Wilmington station: high tides about 0.96× the height, 54 min earlier; low tides about 1.07× the height, 78 min earlier.

Georgia and the Carolinas run the biggest ranges on the Southeast coast — 7 to 10 ft through marsh creeks and barrier-island inlets that rearrange themselves with every storm.
