About the tides at Wakulla Airport
Wakulla Airport has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 2.4 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.2 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.8 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.4 ft, on November 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.8 ft on December 25 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on November 25.
Predictions for Wakulla Airport 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 2023 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Panacea, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 23 min earlier.
