About the tides at Symonds Bay

Symonds Bay 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 Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound. With a mean range of about 7.2 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.5 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −3.2 ft on July 5.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Golf Island, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min later. For tidal currents, see Biorka Channel.

Predictions are based on Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound.
