About the tides at Boca Chita Key

Boca Chita Key has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Water here rises and falls only about 1.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.3 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −0.5 ft on January 22.

Predictions for Boca Chita Key come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1930 to 1988 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Ragged Keys, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 24 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Fowey Rocks Light, 1.5 miles SW of.
