About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Kvichak from the Port Moller station: high tides about 1.54× the height, 321 min later; low tides about 0.41× the height, 469 min later.
Bristol Bay is shallow and funnel-shaped, which builds respectable ranges and strong currents across the flats — and minus tides drain huge stretches of mudflat. This is salmon country, and summer is the busy season.
