About the tides at Pigeon Key, north side, Florida Bay

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. Water here rises and falls only about 0.6 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, 1.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.7 ft, on October 8.

Pigeon Key, north side, Florida Bay is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Pigeon Key, 0.2 mi away, where high tide comes about 45 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Moser Channel, between Molasses and Pigeon Keys.

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.
