About the tides at Key Haven - Stock Island Channel
Key Haven - Stock Island Channel has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 0.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 1.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 1.1 ft.
Key Haven - Stock Island Channel is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Cow Key Channel, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 30 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Safe Habor Entrance, Stock Island.
