About the tides at Smith Creek
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.1 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Water here rises and falls only about 0.7 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.0 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 0.8 ft, on Sunday.
Smith Creek is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Bings Landing, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 22 m 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.
