About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Longboats Key, Sarasota Bay from the St. Petersburg station: high tides about 0.85× the height, 90 min earlier; low tides about 1.11× the height, 77 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.
