About the tides at Bahia Mar Yacht Club
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Ft. Lauderdale Bahia Yacht Club, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Miami Beach, Government Cut. The average range is about 2.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.7 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 3.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.5 ft on September 29, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 23.
Bahia Mar Yacht Club is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Miami Beach, Government Cut: highs come about 5 min earlier and lows about 33 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1970 to 1971 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Mayan Lake, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min later. For tidal currents, see Fort Lauderdale, New River.
Predictions are based on Miami Beach, Government Cut.
