About the tides at Fishing Bend

Tides at Santa Rosa Sound are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.9 ft on August 28, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 20.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1985 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Pensacola Beach Pier, 0.6 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 23 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Pensacola Bay entrance, midchannel.
