About the tides at Soldier Key
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Soldier Key, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 2.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.9 ft.
Soldier Key is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Ragged Keys, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min later. For tidal currents, see Fowey Rocks Light, 1.5 miles SW of.
