About the tides at Shell Point, Walker Creek

Shell Point, Walker Creek has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 2.6 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on Monday, with a range of 4.1 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 2.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.6 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.6 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. It was established in 1973. The nearest other station is Panacea, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min later. For tidal currents, see Four Mile Point, St. Marks River.
