About the tides at Ninilchik

Ninilchik has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Ninilchik sees a mean range of about 16.5 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 19.2 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 23.5 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −5.3 ft on July 5.

Predictions for Ninilchik come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1979 to 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Anchor Point, 9455606, 21 mi away, where high tide comes about 36 min earlier.
