Ocean City runs mixed-semidiurnal water: two highs and two lows daily, unequal by ~0.6 ft between successive highs this week. The tide here is gentle — the water moves about 1.5 ft between high and low on an average swing this week, so timing matters less than on big-tide coasts. A 2.7 ft swing — Ocean City's biggest this table — runs from the 4:26 AM low on Mon Sep 14 into the next high. Ocean City tops out at 2.8 ft (Mon Sep 14 10:43 AM) and bottoms at 0.1 ft (Mon Sep 14 4:26 AM).

Ocean City numbers: NOAA CO-OPS #8570282 (Ocean City (isle of Wight Bay)), 0.2 km off Ocean City center; this open-water pick beat 4 closer-in candidates. With only 1.5 ft of average swing at Ocean City, wind and pressure can move the real water line more than the tide itself does — treat these times as the schedule, not the whole story.
