    Does anyone know where to find the tide difference between cape may and ocean city, md? I have a tide watch and it has cape may pre-programmed but I need to adjust for the difference to ocean city. Thanks in advance for the assistance.

    if you look at the tides published on Swellinfo for Cape May and Ocean City, you will see that they are very close. For example, today low is 12:00pm in OC, and 11:50am in Cape may.

    Thanks for the info fellas. I was looking for a differential, like +10, etc. But if it's within 10 minutes of Cape May (thanks swellinfo) I will just leave it set at that cape may default as that won't make a hell of a difference.

    Or. . .

    . . . you could always read the watch manual for setting location.

    ...did that and it required the tide differential from the nearest programmed location which was Cape may or VA beach. But I'm good now it's all done. Thanks again
