About the tides at Raccoon Key Spit

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Raccoon Key Spit, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The range is large, about 6.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 8.8 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −1.3 ft on January 23.

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 2011 to 2012 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Jekyll Island Marina, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 23 min later.
