Boynton Beach Tide Chart

Boynton tide times this week

Reading the tide at Boynton

These times come from the NOAA CO-OPS station at Boynton Beach, Lake Worth, measured against mean lower low water (MLLW) — the datum every US chart uses, so a 1.5 ft prediction means a foot and a half above the average lowest tide, not above the bottom. Wind and pressure shift the real water level either side of the prediction: a hard onshore blow stacks water up and a strong offshore wind can pull a low tide well below what the table says.

Local tip: The outgoing rips through this inlet — it's the classic snook and tarpon tide, and the roughest to boat.

For fishing, the times in the table matter less than what happens between them. Water moving is what turns the bite on, and the strongest flow is roughly midway between a high and a low — so the two hours either side of that midpoint usually beat slack water at either end, particularly around snook and tarpon.

Boynton tide questions

What time is high tide at Boynton today?

What time is low tide at Boynton today?

Low tide at Boynton Beach is at 12:52 AM (1.2 ft) and 1:12 PM (0.9 ft). A strong offshore wind can pull the water lower than predicted, which matters on shallow flats and at boat ramps.

How big is the tide at Boynton?

Today's range at Boynton Beach is about 1.7 ft. Florida's Atlantic side runs a much bigger tide than the Gulf, from roughly two to three feet in the southeast up to six feet and more near the Georgia line, with two highs and two lows a day. Either way the range grows around the new and full moon — those spring tides move noticeably more water.

Which tide is best for fishing Boynton?

Moving water beats slack water almost everywhere. The strongest current runs roughly midway between a high and a low, so plan the two hours either side of that rather than the exact turn. First and last light overlapping a moving tide is the classic window.
