About the tides at Elliott Key Harbor
Elliott Key Harbor has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Water here rises and falls only about 1.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.7 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 1.0 ft, on October 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.2 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −0.5 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Elliott Key Harbor come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1974 to 1988 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Coon Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Caesar Creek, Biscayne Bay.
