About the tides at Cape Krusenstern

Cape Krusenstern 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 0.5 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. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.6 ft, comes on November 2, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on October 29. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 0.7 ft on December 29 and bottom out at −0.2 ft on December 28.

Predictions for Cape Krusenstern 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 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Kotzebue, 23 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 26 m earlier.
