About the tides at Green Cove Springs

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.1 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Bar Pilots Dock, St Johns River. The mean range is small, about 0.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.0 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −0.3 ft on January 23.

Green Cove Springs is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Bar Pilots Dock, St Johns River: highs come about 297 min and lows about 355 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1978 to 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Red Bay Point, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Red Bay Point, draw bridge.

Predictions are based on Bar Pilots Dock, St Johns River.
