About the tides at Kisselen Bay
Kisselen Bay has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 3.3 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 6.4 ft, comes on Saturday, and the smallest, 1.8 ft, on October 13.
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 Anderson Bay, 11 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 58 m later. For tidal currents, see Captains Bay.
Predictions are based on Unalaska.
