About the tides at Kings Ferry
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 2.2 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 3.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.3 ft.
Kings Ferry is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Little St. Marys River, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 16 m earlier.
