About the tides at Boca Raton
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Boca Raton, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 2.2 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 2.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.8 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −0.3 ft on December 24.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1970 to 1973 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Lake Wyman, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 50 min later.
