Speak to the front desk and they can guide you to the daily tide charts printed in the Acadia Weekly pamphlets, or simply visit here. Please remember, Low Tide is the point just before the tide starts to come in again. For best results, please plan to begin your excursions to low tidal areas 1.5 hours before the time listed as Low Tide, which would then give you a window of 3 hours until the high waters return
