About the tides at Craig

Craig has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. With a mean range of about 8.0 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 10.1 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 11.9 ft, comes on Sunday, and the smallest, 3.7 ft, on October 17. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.4 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −2.8 ft on December 24.

Predictions for Craig 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 2007 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Shinaku Inlet, 7 mi away. For tidal currents, see Craig Cannery.
