About the tides at Tuntutuliak
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 3.8 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The range is large, about 5.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.6 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 8.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 3.9 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 9.8 ft on November 28, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on July 12.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here in 2021 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Helmick Point, 11 mi away, where high tide comes about 54 min earlier.
