About the tides at Indian Bluff Island
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 2.2 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.7 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.7 ft, on October 8.
Indian Bluff Island is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Ozona, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Clearwater Pass, 0.2 mi. NE of Sand Key.
