About the tides at Conch Bar
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.1 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Miami Beach, Government Cut. Water here rises and falls only about 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 0.8 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.5 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. The nearest other station is North Fork, 2 miles above entrance, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later.
Predictions are based on Miami Beach, Government Cut.
