About the tides at Otter Point

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.8 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Unalaska, Dutch Harbor. The average range is about 2.3 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 3.8 ft. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 2.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.5 ft on December 23, and the lowest is −1.4 ft on June 6.

Otter Point is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Unalaska, Dutch Harbor: highs come about 27 min and lows about 40 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Chernofski Harbor, 13 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later. For tidal currents, see Umnak Pass, northwest of Ship Rock.

Predictions are based on Unalaska, Dutch Harbor.
