Tidal Flooding and Beach Access
St. Johns County beaches are expected to experience tidal flooding due to the astronomical tide cycle. Beachgoers should expect delays or intermittent closures to vehicular beach access ramps throughout the holiday weekend and the following week. St. Johns County will monitor the conditions and reopen the ramp gates as the tide allows.
Porpoise Point will remain open to vehicular beach access during normal beach hours, 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Due to high tide and the potential of tidal influence at this location, Porpoise Point will not remain open for viewing the fireworks show on Tuesday, July 4.
