About the tides at Hollywood Beach
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at West Lake, North End, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Government Cut, Miami Harbor Entrance. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.1 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.9 ft on September 29, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 23.
Hollywood Beach is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Government Cut, Miami Harbor Entrance: highs come about 68 min and lows about 102 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1973 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hollywood Beach, West Lake, south end, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see South Port, at the terminals.
Predictions are based on Government Cut, Miami Harbor Entrance.
