About the tides at Jacksonville Beach
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.9 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 5.0 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 6.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 5.4 ft, on Sunday.
Predictions for Jacksonville Beach come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Oak Landing, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 3 h 6 m later. For tidal currents, see Pablo Creek bascule bridge.
