About the tides at Alafia River North

Alafia River North has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 2.0 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 3.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 2.1 ft.

Alafia River North is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is The Kitchen, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 35 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Alafia River ent., 1.2 miles west of.
