About the tides at Meshik

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 2.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. With a mean range of about 8.1 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 11.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 14.3 ft, comes on Saturday, and the smallest, 9.2 ft, on October 9.

Predictions for Meshik 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 2013 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Kujulik Bay (North Shore), 33 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 50 m later. For tidal currents, see Port Heiden.
