Fishing Pier at the Lake is a public boat ramp in Virginia Beach city, Virginia, on Lake Smith Reservoir. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Little Creek Harbor, Chesapeake Bay from Little Creek VA to Cape Henry VA including the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, James River from JRB to HRBT, Including the Elizabeth River, Chesapeake Bay from New Point Comfort to Little Creek VA (Area 10 of 11) and Coastal Waters from Cape Charles Light to Virginia-North Carolina border out to 20 NM (Area 1 of 4).
The main water here is Little Creek 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 44072, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8638776, Little Creek, NAB, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 2.2 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
