About the tides at Boca de Quadra

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 2.0 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Ketchikan, Tongass Narrows. The tide range here is very large, about 12.7 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 15.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 18.7 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −4.2 ft on July 5.

Boca de Quadra is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Ketchikan, Tongass Narrows: highs come about 0 min and lows about 2 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1933 to 1982 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Kah Shakes Cove, 9 mi away.

Predictions are based on Ketchikan, Tongass Narrows.
