About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Sawpit Creek entrance, bridge from the Fernandina Beach, Amelia River station: high tides about 0.84× the height, 14 min earlier; low tides about the same height, 21 min later.

Two coasts, two personalities: modest 2 to 4 ft semidiurnal ranges on the Atlantic side, mixed tides on the Gulf side, and king tides that flood streets on calm, sunny days.
