About the tides at Ponce Inlet

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Halifax River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 2.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 3.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.8 ft.

Ponce Inlet is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Ponce de Leon Inlet, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 24 min earlier.
