About the tides at Port Saint Joe

Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 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. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.7 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 0.5 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.4 ft on October 28 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 20.

Predictions for Port Saint Joe 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 1975 to 1982 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is White City, Gulf County Canal, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min earlier.
