6th Street is a public boat ramp in Whatcom County, Washington, on Bellingham Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 9 waters: Bellingham Bay, Chuckanut Bay, I and J Street Waterway, Squalicum Creek Waterway, Whatcom Creek Waterway, Bellingham Harbor, and 3 more.
The main water here is Bellingham Harbor. Bays are scored mostly on wind. Wave height counts for less than on open water, and comfort (temperature and chance of rain) counts for more. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46118, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9449211, Bellingham, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.6 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
