About the tides at McIlvaine Bay

McIlvaine Bay has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 1.9 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 2.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.0 ft, comes on Monday, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on October 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.3 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.9 ft on January 22.

Predictions for McIlvaine Bay 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 1978 to 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Marco, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 2 m earlier.
