About the tides at Government Cut

Government Cut has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 2.3 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 3.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.3 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Miami Harbor Entrance, 0.4 mi away, where high tide comes about 24 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Miami Harbor Entrance.
