About the tides at Hillsboro Inlet Marina
Hillsboro Inlet Marina has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. On a typical day the water moves about 2.3 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.4 ft, on Monday.
Predictions for Hillsboro Inlet Marina come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Hillsboro Inlet, 0.2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Fort Lauderdale, New River.
