About the tides at Frederica River

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Frederica River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. With a mean range of about 7.0 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.6 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 7.4 ft, on Sunday.

Frederica River is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Mackay River (Daymark 239), 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min later. For tidal currents, see Mackay R., 0.5 mi. N of Troup Creek entrance.
