About the tides at Hobart Bay

Hobart Bay has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Juneau, Gastineau Channel, Stephens Pass. Hobart Bay sees a mean range of about 12.6 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Alaska stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 19.4 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 4.9 ft, on October 17. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 18.8 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −4.6 ft on July 5.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Juneau, Gastineau Channel, Stephens Pass, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Windham Bay, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see The Five Fingers.

Predictions are based on Juneau, Gastineau Channel, Stephens Pass.
