About the tides at Shell Point
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Water here rises and falls only about 1.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.3 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.7 ft on June 5 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 20.
Predictions for Shell Point come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Punta Gorda, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier.
