About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Explorer Bay from the Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island station: high tides about 1.24× the height, 163 min earlier; low tides about 1.24× the height, 144 min earlier.
Ranges shrink as you head down the chain, but the passes between islands rip hard on the change, and weather calls the shots year-round. Wind can hold water in or blow it out far beyond what the table says.
