About the tides at Shell Mound

Shell Mound has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 2.7 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.6 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 3.2 ft, on Monday.

Predictions for Shell Mound come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Cedar Key, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min later.
