About the tides at Garden Cove

Garden Cove has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. 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 on October 10, with a range of 2.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.0 ft.

Garden Cove is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Largo Sound, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 14 m later.
