About the tides at Fort Myers

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. Water here rises and falls only about 0.9 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.3 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.6 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 0.7 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.9 ft on October 28 and bottom out at −0.7 ft on February 2.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1965. The nearest other station is Cape Coral Bridge, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min earlier.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
