About the tides at Nueces Bay

Nueces 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 0.7 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Texas stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.7 ft, comes on Tuesday, and the smallest, 0.1 ft, on October 22. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.3 ft on October 29 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 20.

Predictions for Nueces 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 2010 to 2024 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is White Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later.

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.
