About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Beck Island, Clarence Strait from the Ketchikan station: high tides about 1.05× the height, 10 min later; low tides about the same height, 5 min later.
Inside Passage waters are sheltered, but the ranges are real: 15 to 20 ft swings are routine, and narrow channels run strong tidal currents on the change. Out here, rain and channel weather matter more than ice.
