Port Boca Grande Lighthouse (Florida) Mechanical Animated Tide Clock
Everything Nautical is proud to present the Port Boca Grande Lighthouse (FL) Animated Tide Clock. This stunning clock tracks the tide in true nautical fashion. While the dial counts away the hours between tide cycles below, the top is mechanically animated to show the changing sea level in real time. At high tide the water will sit high on the coastline, and slowly lower to reveal the sandy beach below before beginning to rise again.
Originally built in 1890, the screw-pile Port Boca Grande Lighthouse, also known as the Gasparilla Light, was necessary to mark the Boca Grande (the 'large mouth') between Gasparilla and Locasta Islands. The light stands on the southern tip of Gasparilla Island and is currently one of only six lighthouses in Florida that is open to the public. Today it houses a museum and is a free attraction located in Gasparilla Island State Park.
A fun and whimsical addition to any room, this tide clock is hand-crafted right in New England. It works to track the tide anywhere that has two high and low tides per day and will run all year on a single AA battery. Choose from 3 different wooden frame colors (Navy, Black, and Gray), or upgrade to our Deluxe Mahogany Frame for added quality and class.
This functional piece will help turn any space into an ocean-side getaway. It also makes a great gift for the Captain in your life, no matter the occasion!
