About the tides at Dolphin Point

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 1.3 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Seldovia, Cook Inlet. The tide range here is very large, about 10.8 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 18.3 ft on January 23, and the lowest is −5.5 ft on July 5.

Dolphin Point is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Seldovia, Cook Inlet: highs come about 25 min and lows about 5 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is West Raspberry Island, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 22 min later. For tidal currents, see Raspberry Strait, south of Muskomee Bay.

Predictions are based on Seldovia, Cook Inlet.
