Bay View Inn Resort, Marina and General Store is a boat ramp in Monroe County, Florida, on Florida Bay - Hawk Channel. From here SeaStatus scores 7 waters: Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 7 of 23), Bayside and Gulfside from Craig Key to West End of Seven Mile Bridge (Area 5 of 6), Straits of Florida from Craig Key to west end of Seven Mile Bridge out 20 NM (Area 3 of 3), Florida Bay including Barnes Sound, Blackwater Sound, and Buttonwood Sound (Area 3 of 7), Hawk Channel from Craig Key to west end of Seven Mile Bridge out to the reef, Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 6 of 23), and 1 more.
The main water here is Bayside and Gulfside from Craig Key to West End of Seven Mile Bridge (Area 5 of 6). 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 8723906, Conch Key, eastern end, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 3.0 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
