About the tides at Unalakleet

Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. 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. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.9 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on December 11.

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 19 min later.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
