About the tides at Fleming Key
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 1.0 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 1.9 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 1.1 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Sigsbee Park, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min later. For tidal currents, see Fleming Key, North of.
