About Floatation Canal Road

Floatation Canal Road is a boat ramp in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, on Bayou Lafourche. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Barataria Bay (Area 2 of 10), Terrebonne Bay (Area 4 of 5), Coastal waters from the Southwest Pass of the Mississippi River to Port Fourchon Louisiana out 20 NM (Area 1 of 6) and Coastal Waters from Port Fourchon LA to Lower Atchafalaya River LA out 20 nm (Area 4 of 5).

The main water here is Barataria Bay (Area 2 of 10). 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 8762075, Port Fourchon, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 8.6 mi from this ramp.
