About the tides at Crescent Beach
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 4.1 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 4.6 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.6 ft on September 29 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on June 5.
Predictions for Crescent Beach 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 1997 to 2008 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Fort Matanzas, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 40 min earlier.
