About the tides at Fort Pierce

Fort Pierce 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 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.7 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.2 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 1.2 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.0 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on December 24.

Predictions for Fort Pierce 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 1969 to 2000 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is North Beach Causeway, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Turning Basin.
