About the tides at Shell Point
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.4 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 1.5 ft, on October 7.
Predictions for Shell Point come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Punta Gorda, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min earlier.
Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
