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. Water here rises and falls only about 2.0 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.8 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.3 ft, on October 7.
Predictions for Fort Pierce Inlet come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Fort Pierce Inlet, south jetty, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Fort Pierce Inlet Entrance.
