About Big Salmon

Big Salmon is a public boat ramp in Clallam County, Washington, on Strait of Juan de Fuca - Neah Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Sail River, Waatch River, Neah Bay, Coastal Waters From Cape Flattery To James Island Out 10 Nm (Area 1 of 2) and West Entrance U.S. Waters Strait Of Juan De Fuca.

The main water here is Neah Bay. 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 46087, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9443090, NEAH BAY, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 0.4 mi from this ramp.
