Gas prices have dropped by double digits in South Florida. Check your area
Gas prices are decreasing in South Florida.
Since Friday, prices across the state have continued to tick down, and are 18 cents a gallon lower than this time a week ago. Drivers can even find gas for less than $4 a gallon at some stations in Miami-Dade and Broward.
But the price drops may not last long with the uncertainty in the Middle East.
“The move toward a full blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is compounding global supply concerns and risks further disrupting flows, which pushed oil prices sharply higher in Sunday night trading,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy. “As a result, gasoline prices are likely to jump again this week, with diesel expected to follow, until there is a meaningful restoration of shipping through the Strait.”
Miami-area prices are 33 cents higher per gallon than a month ago and $1.06 higher than a year ago, according to GasBuddy, a national fuel monitoring service that surveys nearly 1,700 stations in South Florida.
North Florida remains the cheapest to pump in Florida, and several areas are now under $4. Naples and Palm Beach County are the most expensive areas to buy gas, according to AAA.

What the experts are saying
▪ Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy: “Average gasoline prices surged for many Americans through the first half of last week before easing in some areas after oil prices slipped following President Trump’s announcement of a ceasefire. However, with a breakdown in talks and renewed escalation over the weekend, motorists should prepare for another round of price increases.”
