About the tides at Bailey's Bluff

Bailey's Bluff has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Clearwater Beach. On a typical day the water moves about 2.3 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.2 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 4.3 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −1.4 ft on January 21.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Clearwater Beach, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here in 1976 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Anclote, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min later.

Predictions are based on Clearwater Beach.
