About the tides at Biscayne Creek

Biscayne Creek has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Miami Beach, Government Cut. On a typical day the water moves about 2.2 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.4 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.1 ft on September 29 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Miami Beach, Government Cut, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1970 to 1973 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Indian Creek Golf Club, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 26 min later. For tidal currents, see Bakers Haulover Cut.

Predictions are based on Miami Beach, Government Cut.
