About the tides at Key Colony Beach

Key Colony Beach has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 1.6 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 1.9 ft, on Monday.

Predictions for Key Colony Beach come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Fat Deer Key, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 h 15 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Moser Channel, between Molasses and Pigeon Keys.
