## What is Florida Tides?

Know the water before you go. Florida Tides brings 192 hand-verified NOAA tide stations — from the First Coast to the Keys and across the Panhandle — into one calm, fast app built for this state and nothing else.

Open the coastal map and see every station at a glance, each marked with its current tide state. Tap a station for today's highs and lows, times and heights, and a full tide curve you can read minute by minute.

INTERACTIVE TIDE CURVE
Press and drag along the curve to read the exact predicted water level for any time of day. Rising and falling water are color coded, so the trend is clear in a second.

HIGHS, LOWS, AND BAY-SIDE CONTEXT
Every station lists high and low tide times with heights. Stations tucked inside protected bays, lagoons, rivers, and the Intracoastal are tagged bay-side, so you know when the water there runs on a different clock than the open coast.

WIDGETS FOR YOUR BEACH
Add a favorite station to your Home Screen or Lock Screen and see the next tide plus a 24-hour sparkline without opening the app. Favorites and nearest-station detection get you to your spot immediately.

WEATHER AT THE STATION
Current conditions, air temperature, wind, and sea surface temperature are shown alongside the tide, so you can judge the morning before you load the truck. Open-coast stations add wave height and a water clarity estimate built from the past two days of wind and waves.

STATEWIDE COVERAGE
All nine Florida coastal regions are included: Atlantic beaches, the Space Coast, South Florida, the Keys, the Southwest Gulf, Tampa Bay, the Nature Coast, the Big Bend, and the Panhandle.

BUILT TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY
No account, no sign-up. Tide tables are cached on device, so recent predictions stay available when the signal drops. Two hand-tuned themes are included: a deep-sea nautical palette and a neon Miami-inspired Vice look.

MADE FOR
Beachgoers timing a low-tide walk, anglers working an incoming tide, boaters watching a shallow pass, surfers, kayakers, shellers, and anyone who plans around the water.

ABOUT THE DATA
Tide values are NOAA astronomical predictions, not readings from a live gauge. Actual water levels can differ with wind, pressure, and storms. Weather data is provided by Open-Meteo. Always use official sources and your own judgment for navigation and safety decisions.

NEW: Widgets that work the way you do. Star your stations in the app and the widget follows them automatically, or pick a station directly from Edit Widget on your Home Screen. Either route works.

Drag to reorder your Favorites, and the first station headlines the small widget and leads the medium one. Changed your mind? Un-star any station straight from the Favorites list with a swipe or a long-press.

Download Florida Tides and check the water in the time it takes to grab your keys.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.12 — 2026-10-07

New in 1.1.12

WATER CLARITY ESTIMATE
Open-coast stations now show a Water clarity likely read in the Seas card: Good, Fair, or Poor, with a one-line reason. It's estimated from the past two days of wind and waves. Runoff and red tide aren't modeled, so treat it as a guide.

SIX NEW JUPITER-AREA STATIONS
Loxahatchee River, Loxahatchee River Lock, Jupiter West, Donald Ross Bridge, PGA Boulevard Bridge, and Lake Worth on the Intracoastal. 192 stations in all.

BETTER BAY-SIDE LABELS
21 more stations along lagoons, rivers, and the Intracoastal are now tagged bay-side, and two beach stations no longer are.

### 1.1.11 — 2026-09-30

New in 1.1.11

TALLER STATION VIEW
Tap a station and drag the view up a second time — or tap the new expand button — to grow it to just under the title bar, leaving more room for the tide curve and tables. The 8-hour weather forecast opens on its own when you do. Drag back down to shrink it again. The welcome tour now shows you how.

FASTER FIRST LAUNCH
Live NOAA tides now load by themselves the first time you open the app, and catch up automatically when you come back to it.

BANNER FIX
The bottom banner now points at a true Banner ad slot, completing the reliability fix from 1.1.9.

### 1.1.9 — 2026-09-29

New in 1.1.9

RELIABILITY FIXES
The bottom banner now loads more dependably: it waits for everything to be ready before loading, and quietly tries again if the connection drops. Remove Ads owners still see no ads at all.

### 1.1.8 — 2026-09-26

New in 1.1.8

SUNRISE AND SUNSET
Every station now shows today's sunrise and sunset times right next to the moon phase in the new Sun & Moon card — handy for timing a dawn fishing run or a sunset low-tide walk. Times are shown in that station's local time zone.

### 1.1.7 — 2026-09-26

Listing update only — nothing changed inside the app. We've refined how Florida Tides is described on the App Store: new search terms and a clearer subtitle.
