About the tides at Bethel

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 2.4 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.7 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.1 ft on June 6 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 21.

Predictions for Bethel come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1970 to 2010 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Lomavik, 25 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 6 m earlier.
