About the tides at Kah Shakes Cove

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Kah Shakes Cove, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Ketchikan. Kah Shakes Cove sees a mean range of about 12.3 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, 18.5 ft, comes on Sunday, and the smallest, 5.5 ft, on October 17. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 18.5 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −4.2 ft on July 5.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Ketchikan, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Boca de Quadra, 9 mi away. For tidal currents, see Duke Point, 3.5 miles northeast of.

Predictions are based on Ketchikan.
