About the tides at 8 miles above mouth

8 miles above mouth has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Fernandina Beach, Amelia River. With a mean range of about 6.8 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.3 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Fernandina Beach, Amelia River, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Jointer Island, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Turtle River, off Andrews Island.

Predictions are based on Fernandina Beach, Amelia River.
