About the tides at Fort Pierce Inlet
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 2.0 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.6 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.6 ft, on October 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.9 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on December 24.
Predictions for Fort Pierce Inlet come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1969. The nearest other station is Fort Pierce Inlet, south jetty, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Fort Pierce Inlet Entrance.
