About the tides at Kenilworth Aquatic Garden
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Kenilworth Aquatic Garden, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 2.7 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.4 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 2.5 ft, on Monday.
Kenilworth Aquatic Garden is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Kingman Lake, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier. For tidal currents, see South Capitol Street Bridge.
