About the tides at Matlacha Pass (bascule bridge)

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.8 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.4 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.1 ft, on November 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.7 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.9 ft on January 21.

Predictions for Matlacha Pass (bascule bridge) come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1965 to 2022 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Pineland, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cape Haze, 2.3 mi. S of, Charlotte Hbr.
