About the tides at Sugarloaf Key, east side, Tarpon Creek

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 1.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.0 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 1.3 ft, today.

Sugarloaf Key, east side, Tarpon Creek is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Tarpon Creek, 0.4 mi away, where high tide comes about 12 min later. For tidal currents, see Loggerhead Key, East of.

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.
