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. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.4 ft on September 29, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 23.
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 1985 to 1986 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Miami Harbor Entrance, 0.4 mi away, where high tide comes about 21 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Miami Harbor Entrance.
