On your way to the beautiful town of Girdwood stop and witness Alaskan's amazing
Turnagain Arm bore tide , this is basically a wave formed when a super low tide and a super high tide crash into each other in the narrow and shallow Turnagain Arm.
The wave can come twice a day and is often surfed by local riders, who are sometimes able to surf a very long time on 5-10 foot faces. I guarantee you will enjoy this.
It occurs 2-3 hours after the low tide time in Anchorage, Alaska. It is total luck (and anyone is so lucky!) on any given day to see the bore tide, as shifting, silty mud, icebergs and rivers of Turnagain Arm make for an ever-changing and unpredictable creature.
