About the tides at Adams Key

Adams Key has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The mean range is small, about 1.3 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 2.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.3 ft.

Adams Key is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Billys Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 7 m later. For tidal currents, see Caesar Creek, Biscayne Bay.
