About the tides at Windham Bay
Windham Bay has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Juneau, Gastineau Channel, Stephens Pass. The tide range here is very large, about 12.1 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. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 18.8 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −4.6 ft on July 5.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Juneau, Gastineau Channel, Stephens Pass, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Hobart Bay, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier.
Predictions are based on Juneau, Gastineau Channel, Stephens Pass.
