About the tides at Dutch Harbor

Dutch Harbor has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Unalaska. On a typical day the water moves about 2.2 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.0 ft, comes on October 15, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on Friday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.1 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −1.5 ft on June 6.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Unalaska, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Unalaska, 0.9 mi away. For tidal currents, see Iliuliuk Bay, east channel.

Predictions are based on Unalaska.
