About the tides at Boca Chica Marina

Boca Chica Marina has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 0.8 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.2 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.7 ft, on October 22. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.8 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −0.3 ft on November 25.

Predictions for Boca Chica Marina come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2000 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Boca Chica Channel Bridge, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 40 min later. For tidal currents, see Safe Habor Entrance, Stock Island.
