About the tides at Tanaga Bay

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Tanaga Bay, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island. The average range is about 2.6 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 on October 15, with a range of 4.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 0.9 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.0 ft on December 23, and the lowest is −1.9 ft on June 6.

Tanaga Bay is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island: highs come about 6 min and lows about 32 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Lash Bay, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 50 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Kanaga Pass, 0.3 mile NW of Annoy Rock.

Predictions are based on Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island.
