About the tides at West Raspberry Island
West Raspberry Island has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The tide range here is very large, about 11.6 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 14.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 25, with a range of 18.2 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 6.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 17.7 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −4.1 ft on July 5.
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 2014 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dolphin Point, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Raspberry Cape, south of.
