About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Kah Shakes Cove from the Ketchikan station: high tides about 0.97× the height, at the same time; low tides about 0.96× the height, 6 min later.

Alaska holds the country's most extreme tides: Inside Passage channels, Cook Inlet swings past 30 ft, and Arctic stations where the tide is measured in inches and wind setup runs the show.
