About the tides at Kotlik

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 2.2 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.2 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.6 ft, comes on October 16, and the smallest, 0.8 ft, on Tuesday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 4.8 ft on July 5 and bottom out at −1.3 ft on November 28.

Predictions for Kotlik come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2020 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Pikmiktalik River entrance, 33 mi away, where high tide comes about 34 min later.
