About the tides at Boot Bay
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Boot Bay, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island. 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. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.1 ft, comes on October 15, and the smallest, 1.9 ft, tomorrow. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.4 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −1.7 ft on June 6.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Adak Bight, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min later. For tidal currents, see Kagalaska Strait, off Galas Point.
Predictions are based on Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island.
