Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 15.0 ft, comes on October 11, and the smallest, 7.7 ft, on Friday.

Predictions for Blue Fjord 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 1961 to 1997 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Eshamy Lagoon, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Culross Pass Entrance.
