About the tides at Gibbon Anchorage
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Cordova. With a mean range of about 9.3 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 14.9 ft, comes on Sunday, and the smallest, 3.7 ft, on October 17. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 15.1 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −3.9 ft on July 5.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Cordova, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Port Chalmers, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min later. For tidal currents, see Green Island Pass.
Predictions are based on Cordova.
