About the tides at Lauderdale-by-the-Sea
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 2.6 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.9 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.9 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Lauderdale-by-the-Sea 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 1978 to 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hillsboro Inlet (ocean), 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Fort Lauderdale, New River.
