About the tides at Reid Bay
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound. The range is large, about 9.9 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 15.1 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −3.2 ft on July 5.
Reid Bay is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound: highs come about 11 min and lows about 19 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Sumner Island, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Sumner Island, 1.8 miles south of.
Predictions are based on Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound.
