About the tides at Ceylon

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Ceylon, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Fernandina Beach, Amelia River. With a mean range of about 6.3 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 8.5 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.6 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 Bailey Cut, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 18 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cabin Bluff, Cumberland River.

Predictions are based on Fernandina Beach, Amelia River.
