Fort Pierce Tide Schedule: Wednesday, June 10, 2026

Fort Pierce Inlet reaches its first high tide of the day at 4:02 a.m. Wednesday at 2.4 feet, before water levels fall to near-zero feet — the lowest point of the day — by 10:17 a.m., NOAA tidal data shows.

The afternoon brings the stronger of the two high tides, peaking at 2.7 feet at 4:52 p.m. Anglers and boaters working St. Lucie County waters should note that window: moving water on the incoming tide through mid-afternoon typically stirs baitfish along the inlet jetties and the nearshore reefs just outside the inlet's mouth. The outgoing ebb that follows can push productive current through the mangrove edges of the North Fork.

The day's final low arrives at 10:59 p.m. at 0.2 feet, leaving a narrow tidal range overnight.

ALERTS: Check the National Weather Service Melbourne office for any active marine advisories before departing. No alerts are reflected in this tidal data.

TODAY ON THE WATER: The 10:17 a.m. low of near-zero feet demands caution for shallow-draft vessels in the back bays off the Indian River Lagoon near Fort Pierce. Sand bars and oyster beds that sit submerged at high tide may be exposed or dangerously close to the surface through mid-morning, NWS tide data indicates. Paddle craft and flats boats should plan accordingly.

THIS WEEK: Wednesday's tidal pattern — near-zero morning low, strong afternoon high — reflects the mixed semidiurnal tide cycle typical of the Treasure Coast in June. The National Ocean Service Fort Pierce gauge, maintained at the inlet, remains the most reliable local reference point for St. Lucie County boaters planning multi-day trips.
