The single most useful number in Tuesday's tide chart for Sebastian Inlet is 0.0 feet — a dead-low tide arriving at 4:54 p.m. that will drain the inlet flats to near-bare bottom and concentrate baitfish, snook and redfish in predictable pockets along the rock walls.

NOAA CO-OPS tide predictions for Sebastian Inlet show four tidal cycles Tuesday:

TODAY: Low of 0.4 feet at 4:58 a.m. High of 2.2 feet at 10:45 a.m. Low of 0.0 feet at 4:54 p.m. High of 2.8 feet at 11:23 p.m.

ON THE WATER: The morning window — five to 10 a.m. — offers a rising tide through the inlet, which typically pushes bait and juvenile mullet into the park side and triggers feeding along the jetties. The afternoon zero-tide is the headline: currents running hard out of the Indian River Lagoon will funnel through the inlet channel with maximum velocity roughly 90 minutes before the 4:54 p.m. low. That outgoing surge is the most productive snook window of the day, NOAA tidal data shows.

Boaters transiting the inlet should use caution during peak ebb, roughly three to five p.m. Shallow-draft vessels risk contact with the sandbars flanking the main channel when the tide drops below 0.5 feet, according to public tide records. The evening high of 2.8 feet arrives near midnight, offering a second, quieter window for night anglers targeting tarpon on the incoming.

ALERTS: No active NWS watches, warnings or advisories are in effect for Indian River County as of publication. [NEEDS VERIFICATION — confirm with NWS Melbourne Area Forecast Discussion before press time.]
