About the tides at Kodiak

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The range is large, about 6.8 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 8.8 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 10.6 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 6.9 ft.

Womens Bay is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It was established in 1984. The nearest other station is Kodiak, St. Paul Harbor, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see St. Paul Harbor.
