About the tides at Sawyer Key, outside, Cudjoe Channel

Sawyer Key, outside, Cudjoe Channel has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Key West. 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. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.0 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 2.7 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 4.0 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. The nearest other station is Sawyer Key, 0.1 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Loggerhead Key, East of.

Predictions are based on Key West.
