About the tides at Unalakleet
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 2.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.4 ft. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 3.4 ft. Neap tides follow on October 10, when the range shrinks to 1.5 ft.
Unalakleet is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports air pressure. It was established in 1977. The nearest other station is Shaktoolik, 37 mi away, where high tide comes about 18 min later.
