The tide at Hampton Beach
New Hampshire’s short coast works a nine-foot tide. Put the chair by the seawall in the morning and you will spend the afternoon walking to the water.

What the water does here
Hampton Beach runs two highs and two lows a day, near enough evenly spaced. Between low and high the water moves about 8.4 feet, averaged across a week of predictions.
A Wavepane on the wall shows that as a picture rather than a table: the water sits where the water sits, and the wave on top grows or flattens with the swell outside. It wakes every half hour, redraws, and goes back to sleep. Nothing to open, nothing to check.
