About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Matanzas Pass (fixed bridge) Estero Island from the St. Petersburg station: high tides about 1.22× the height, 70 min earlier; low tides about 1.22× the height, 94 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.
