About the tides at Drew Point

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.3 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 0.5 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 0.8 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 1.0 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.4 ft on August 1, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on April 10.

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 in 2025 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Cape Halkett, 37 mi away, where high tide comes about 32 min earlier.
