About the tides at Aripeka

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Cedar Key, Gulf of Mexico. The average range is about 2.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 4.0 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 2.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.8 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.0 ft on December 24.

Aripeka is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Cedar Key, Gulf of Mexico: highs come about 37 min earlier and lows about 23 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Fillmans Bayou, 1 mi away.

Predictions are based on Cedar Key, Gulf of Mexico.
