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. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.6 ft, on October 7.
Predictions for Fort Pierce come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is North Beach Causeway, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Turning Basin.
