Tides in Cutler Bay
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 6:06 am 0.5 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:56 am 2.9 ft · coef. 83
- ▼ Low tide 6:29 pm 0.8 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 12:00 am 2.8 ft · coef. 82
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 5 min to high tide at 12:00 am.
Tide coefficient 83 for the 11:56 am high tide and 82 for the 12:00 am high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 2.5 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on October 27 (3.0 ft) and the lowest, on June 15 (-0.5 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 25 to 28 (coefficient 85, 2.5 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 48, 1.4 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Cutler station (NOAA), 3.3 mi from Cutler Bay. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Cutler Bay
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.2 ft
- Significant2.4 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.9 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.9 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 4.3 ft with a period of 5 s, from the east-northeast (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 82.4 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.1 °F).

Diving in Cutler Bay today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around high tide (11:56 am): little current from 11:40 am to 12:11 pm
- 1.7 ft swell at 8 s from the northeast: some surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (12 mph)
- 0.0 mph current toward the east, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 6:06 am (5:40–6:21 am), high tide 11:56 am (11:40 am–12:11 pm), low tide 6:29 pm (6:00–6:50 pm) and high tide 12:00 am (11:40 pm–12:20 am)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 4.7 ft at 7 s) and rain (1.45 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 80.1–81.0 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 7:06 pm. Waning gibbous (91%), rising at 8:46 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:10 am to 12:40 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:30 pm to 6:40 pm, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:57–3:57 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 9:40–10:40 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:16–9:16 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 3.1 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
