Slack water

Today's slack water at Sitka: 4:50 AM · 11:52 AM · 4:38 PM · 10:25 PM
Next slack: 4:50 AM

Every high and low in the table above is also the estimated slack water, the pause when the tidal current stops before it reverses. That estimate holds where the tide behaves as a standing wave, which is typical at the head of a bay or harbor. At an ocean inlet, in a channel joining two basins, or in a tidal river, real slack can fall up to about three hours away from the turn.

What is slack water?

Slack water is the short, calm period at the turn of the tide, when the current pauses between flooding and ebbing. It is the prime window many anglers fish.

How long slack water lasts, and why it rarely matches high tide →

Where does this data come from?

Tide times are computed on the page from NOAA harmonic constituents, the same method NOAA uses, so they match the official tables closely.
