About the tides at Egmont Key

Egmont Key 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 1.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.7 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on October 8.

Predictions for Egmont Key come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Mullet Key Channel (Skyway), 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min later. For tidal currents, see Tampa Bay Entrance (Egmont Channel).
