About the tides at Clearwater Beach

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 3.3 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 2.3 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Clearwater, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 28 min later. For tidal currents, see Clearwater Pass, 0.2 mi. NE of Sand Key.
