About the tides at Cape Peirce

Cape Peirce has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 4.4 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 6.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.3 ft, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 0.5 ft, on October 31. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 8.8 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −1.2 ft on December 24.

Predictions for Cape Peirce 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 1991 to 2019 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Goodnews Bay entrance, 29 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 59 m later.
