About the tides at Chinulna Point

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 1.8 ft. The tide range here is very large, about 18.0 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 20.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 25.4 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −5.0 ft on July 5.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1974 to 1995 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Kenai City Pier, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min later. For tidal currents, see Kenai City Wharf.
