About the tides at South Port Everglades

South Port Everglades has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. On a typical day the water moves about 2.5 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. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.7 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.7 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 23.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1973. The nearest other station is Whiskey Creek, 0.3 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier. For tidal currents, see South Entrance (Icw).
