Today on the water at Navarre Beach
Today at Navarre Beach: low tide at 12:22 PM (-0.1 ft). The National Weather Service forecast for Saturday is partly sunny with E winds 10 to 15 mph, 80°F. Wind that strong can hold water in or push it out, so the real tide may run above or below these predictions. In effect now: Small Craft Advisory. Sunrise is at 7:00 AM and sunset at 6:01 PM.

Where Navarre Beach is
Navarre Beach sits at 30.3767° N, 86.8650° W on the northern Gulf of Mexico, at Navarre Beach, FL. The station here is a historical NOAA reference station: a gauge measured the tide at this spot from 1978 until 1989, and NOAA still publishes harmonic predictions from that record. There is no live reading here today. The closest gauge measuring live water level is Pensacola (NOAA 8729840), 20.7 mi away, and high and low water here run on average about 174 min earlier than there.
The tide at Navarre Beach
Navarre Beach has a diurnal tide: usually one high and one low a day, with the daily rhythm shifting about 50 minutes later each day and fading near the moon's equatorial crossing. This month's predictions average 1.1 high tides a day here. The mean range from lower low to higher high is 1.4 ft, and 1.3 ft between the average high and the average low, a small tide. For the water around it: Northern Gulf tides are diurnal, one high and one low most days with ranges of 1 to 2 ft, so wind and river stage move the water as much as the moon.
About this station
- Highest water on record: 2.9 ft on Dec 31, 1986.
- Lowest on record: -2.0 ft on Feb 29, 1984.
Datum and source
Heights on this page are feet above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero NOAA's nautical charts use for soundings. A predicted 0.0 ft low is the average of the lower low each day; a minus tide is water below chart datum, and a 2 ft high means 2 ft more water than the chart shows. NOAA fixes MLLW at Navarre Beach from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 1.4 ft above it and mean sea level 0.7 ft. The land survey datum NAVD88, the zero on topographic maps and flood maps, is 0.5 ft above MLLW here, so a water level on this page converts to NAVD88 by subtracting that amount. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Pensacola, FL gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 8729678, established 1978, gauge removed 1989. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them.

Monthly tide calendar
🌊 Biggest flood tides at Navarre Beach this month: Oct 2, Oct 3, Oct 4, Oct 26, Oct 27, Oct 28, Oct 29, Oct 30. These spring highs push water up into the grass and over the oyster rock; prime for poling into flooded marsh for tailing reds.
🔻 Negative (minus) low tides at Navarre Beach this month: Oct 28, Oct 29, Oct 30, Oct 31. These drain the flats and expose the oyster rock, prime for sight-fishing and clamming.
