About the tides at Seal Cape
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.2 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Sand Point, Popof Island. The average range is about 4.9 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 8.4 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 3.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 9.4 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −2.8 ft on July 4.
Seal Cape is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sand Point, Popof Island: highs come about 0 min and lows about 5 min later than there. The nearest other station is Ukolnoi Island, 11 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. For tidal currents, see Seal Cape Light, 0.8 mile south of.
Predictions are based on Sand Point, Popof Island.
