About Baileys Harbor

Baileys Harbor is a public boat ramp in Door County, Wisconsin, on Lake Michigan - Baileys Harbor. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI, Green Bay south of line from Cedar River to Rock Island Passage and north of a line from Oconto WI to Little Sturgeon Bay WI (Area 8 of 10) and Lake Michigan from Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI 5NM offshore to mid lake (Area 2 of 4).

The main water here is Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI. Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 9087072. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 6.5 mi from this ramp.
