About the tides at Ponce de Leon Inlet
Ponce de Leon Inlet has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 3.0 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.4 ft. The next spring tides peak on Sunday, with a range of 3.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 2.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.5 ft on October 28, and the lowest is −1.0 ft on January 23.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. It was established in 1973. The nearest other station is Ponce Inlet, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 21 min later.
