About the tides at Little Duck Key

Little Duck Key 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 0.8 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.5 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 0.9 ft, today.

Little Duck Key is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Missouri Key-Little Duck Key Channel, 0.4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Moser Channel, between Molasses and Pigeon Keys.
