About the tides at Spruce Island (north side)
Spruce Island (north side) has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Kodiak Island, Womens Bay. With a mean range of about 6.9 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 10.8 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 4.6 ft, on Friday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 11.8 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −2.4 ft on July 5.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Kodiak Island, Womens Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Ouzinkie, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Narrow Strait, off Ouzinkie Point.
Predictions are based on Kodiak Island, Womens Bay.
