Today on the water at Vero Beach
Today at Vero Beach: high tide at 3:50 AM (0.7 ft) and 4:44 PM (0.9 ft), low tide at 10:23 AM (-0.1 ft) and 11:22 PM (0.2 ft). The National Weather Service forecast for today is showers and thunderstorms likely with ENE winds 15 to 20 mph, 81°F. Wind that strong can hold water in or push it out, so the real tide may run above or below these predictions. In effect now: Small Craft Advisory. Sunrise is at 7:30 AM and sunset at 6:39 PM.
| Period | Forecast | Wind | Temp |
|---|---|---|---|
| Today | Showers And Thunderstorms Likely | ENE 15 to 20 mph | 81°F |

Where Vero Beach is
Vero Beach sits at 27.6317° N, 80.3717° W on Florida's Atlantic coast, at Vero Beach, FL. The station here is a historical NOAA reference station: a gauge measured the tide at this spot from 1972 until 1999, and NOAA still publishes harmonic predictions from that record. There is no live reading here today. The closest gauge measuring live water level is Port Canaveral (Trident Pier) (NOAA 8721604), 55.8 mi away, and high and low water here run on average about 245 min later than there. The nearest weather station is Vero Beach, Vero Beach Municipal Airport, an airport reporting wind, visibility and sky cover, but no water temperature, 3.3 mi away.
The tide at Vero Beach
Vero Beach has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows a day of about the same size, roughly 12 hours 25 minutes apart. This month's predictions average 1.9 high tides a day here. The mean range from lower low to higher high is 0.9 ft, and 0.8 ft between the average high and the average low, a small tide. For the water around it: Florida's Atlantic tides are semidiurnal, two highs and two lows a day, with ranges of 2 to 5 ft that shrink inside the lagoons.
About this station
- High tide reaches Vero Beach about 4.1 hours after the moon passes overhead. That lag is local, which is why high water does not line up with the moon.
Datum and source
Heights on this page are feet above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero NOAA's nautical charts use for soundings. A predicted 0.0 ft low is the average of the lower low each day; a minus tide is water below chart datum, and a 2 ft high means 2 ft more water than the chart shows. NOAA fixes MLLW at Vero Beach from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 0.9 ft above it and mean sea level 0.4 ft. The land survey datum NAVD88, the zero on topographic maps and flood maps, is 1.3 ft above MLLW here, so a water level on this page converts to NAVD88 by subtracting that amount. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Mayport (Ferry Depot), FL gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 8722125, established 1972, gauge removed 1999. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them.

TidalMapMonthly tide calendar
🌊 Biggest flood tides at Vero Beach this month: Oct 1, Oct 2, Oct 26, Oct 27, Oct 28, Oct 29, Oct 30, Oct 31. These spring highs push water up into the grass and over the oyster rock; prime for poling into flooded marsh for tailing reds.
🔻 Negative (minus) low tides at Vero Beach this month: Oct 1, Oct 2, Oct 3, Oct 4, Oct 5, Oct 6, Oct 27, Oct 28, Oct 29, Oct 30, Oct 31. These drain the flats and expose the oyster rock, prime for sight-fishing and clamming.
Best fishing times (solunar)
Major and minor solunar windows for Vero Beach, peak feeding activity is around the moon overhead/underfoot (majors) and moonrise/moonset (minors). Score is the day's activity coefficient (0–100).
