About Deer Lake

Deer Lake is a public boat ramp in Island County, Washington, on Deer Lake. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: Puget Sound and Hood Canal (Area 10 of 20), Northern Inland Waters Including The San Juan Islands (Area 13 of 18), Possession Sound, Puget Sound, Saratoga Passage and Admiralty Inlet.

The main water here is Puget Sound and Hood Canal (Area 10 of 20). 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. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46125, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9447814, Glendale, Whidbey Island, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 7.2 mi from this ramp.
