About the tides at Mullet Key Channel (Skyway)
Mullet Key Channel (Skyway) 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 1.5 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.1 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.7 ft. Neap tides follow on November 18, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.8 ft on December 23, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on December 24.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1991 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Egmont Key, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Mullet Key Channel entrance.
