About the tides at New Smyrna Beach
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 2.4 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 2.8 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.4 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −0.3 ft on December 24.
Predictions for New Smyrna Beach come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 1999 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Ponce de Leon Inlet, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 26 min earlier.
