About the tides at Manatee Creek

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Manatee Bay, Barnes Sound, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Water here rises and falls only about 0.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.5 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 0.3 ft, on Sunday.

Manatee Creek is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Main Key, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
