Starting point only: verify per address before you buy or boat. Clearances move with tides and water levels.

Will your boat clear the bridges on your canal?

Enter your boat height, filter by quadrant or band, and sort any column. Bridge names are deep links: copy the URL with a bridge anchor to share one crossing.

What does this table include, and why 159 bridges?

Why 159, not 67

The current inventory

The City inventory snapshot shown here contains 159 bridge records: 122 have recorded clearances and 37 do not. The earlier 67-record snapshot is not the count used by this table.

River bridges

Not in the City layer

This table contains City canal bridge records, not the Cape Coral Bridge, Midpoint Memorial Bridge or Sanibel Causeway. If your route crosses the river, check those clearances separately with the published navigation charts.

Sources and dates

Where the numbers come from

City of Cape Coral Public Works GIS bridge inventory via PostGIS gis.cc_bridges and the waterway map bridge layer (data/cape-coral-waterways-v2.2.json). City snapshot 2026-07-06T02:21:20.530821Z; this page export 2026-10-01. Clearances are referenced to mean high water, an average high-tide level. Water can rise above it, so check actual conditions before boating.

Bridge clearance, answered.

How many bridges cross Cape Coral canals?

The City bridge layer holds 159 bridge records. 122 carry a recorded vertical clearance and 37 have no recorded clearance. Older pages on this site cite 67 mapped bridges; that figure comes from an earlier inventory snapshot and is superseded by this table.

What do the red, yellow, and green bands mean?

The bands match our Waterway Map legend. Green is 9 ft and over, yellow is 6 to under 9 ft, red is under 6 ft, and grey means the clearance is not recorded. Every clearance is vertical feet above mean high water, a reference level rather than the highest possible water level.

How does the boat height check work?

Enter your boat height above the waterline, including antennas and arches. Any bridge with a recorded clearance below your height is flagged as one you cannot clear. Bridges with no recorded clearance are flagged as unverified, not as safe.

Are the Cape Coral Bridge, Midpoint Bridge, and Sanibel Causeway in this table?

No. Those river and bay crossings are outside the City canal bridge layer, so they are not in this table. If your route crosses the river, check those clearances separately with the published navigation charts.

Where do these numbers come from and how fresh are they?

City of Cape Coral Public Works GIS bridge inventory, served through our waterway map data. The sources section above names the dataset, the City snapshot date, and this page export date.

What clearance does my canal home actually need?

The lowest bridge between the dock and open water sets the ceiling for that home. Use this table as a starting point and verify per address before you buy or boat, since tides and water levels move the real number.

Buyer
