About the tides at Alakanuk

Alakanuk has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 1.6 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.4 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.1 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.6 ft on November 28.

Predictions for Alakanuk come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2021 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Emmonak, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 44 min later.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
