About the tides at South Delray Beach

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.3 ft. 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 2.7 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.5 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 1.8 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.1 ft on November 26 and bottom out at −0.5 ft on November 26.

Predictions for South Delray 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 1973 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Delray Beach, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier.
