About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Simpson Creek, A1A highway bridge from the Fernandina Beach, Amelia River station: high tides about 0.84× the height, 4 min later; low tides about 0.63× the height, 17 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.
