I am looking forward to the almost 3' tides from the high tides in the early AM hours and then falling to the lowest low by late mornings over Jan 15-16-17 in 2021. The tidal coefficient will be dropping from Very High to High from Friday through Sunday.
The water will be high on the Shell Key camping beach Friday and Saturday in the early AM.
I plan to be down there for the 2021 Tampa Bay Frogman Swim, and do my typical Saturday night Camp on Shell Key, leave Shell Key between midnight and 1 AM, pack-up, drive over to Gandy Bridge, paddle over to start beach across Tampa bay along Gandy Bridge at 5 AM, escort swimmer along course at 8:20 AM, paddle from Finish to After-Swim Party, then load-up and find a place to camp before driving to Weeki Wachee for a n early Morning AM paddle starting from the Bayport Park Kayak Launch and paddling upstream to the Weeki Wachee Spring, then back out towarsd the Gulf back to Bayport Park.
