About the tides at King Salmon Airport

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 1.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 4.2 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 2.6 ft.

King Salmon Airport is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Naknek, Naknek River: highs come about 131 min earlier and lows about 23 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1947 to 2024 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Omakstalia Point, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 43 min earlier.

Predictions are based on Naknek, Naknek River.
