About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Lituya Bay, 2 miles inside entrance from the Elfin Cove, Port Althorp station: high tides about 0.87× the height, 6 min later; low tides about 0.89× the height, 36 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.
