About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Fort McRee Breakwater from the PENSACOLA station: high tides about 0.80× the height, 83 min earlier; low tides about 0.80× the height, 34 min earlier.

Two coasts, two personalities: modest 2 to 4 ft semidiurnal ranges on the Atlantic side, mixed tides on the Gulf side, and king tides that flood streets on calm, sunny days.
