About the tides at Sawyer Key

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. The pattern follows the reference station at Key West. On a typical day the water moves about 2.1 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 2.4 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.6 ft on October 29 and bottom out at −0.3 ft on January 21.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Key West, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1973 to 1974 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Sawyer Key, outside, Cudjoe Channel, 0.1 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Loggerhead Key, East of.

Predictions are based on Key West.
