About the tides at Tuxekan

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at Sitka. The range is large, about 8.5 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak on Sunday, with a range of 12.9 ft. Neap tides follow on October 17, when the range shrinks to 3.9 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 13.5 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −3.3 ft on July 5.

Tuxekan is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sitka: highs come about 17 min and lows about 7 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is El Capitan Island, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see Tuxekan Passage, 0.2 mile S of Tuxekan.

Predictions are based on Sitka.
