Fort Gadsden Creek East Primitive Access is a public boat ramp in Franklin County, Florida, on Fort Gadsden Creek. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Apalachicola River (Segment 3 of 4), Apalachicola River (Segment 4 of 4) and Coastal Waters From Ochlockonee River to Apalachicola FL out to 20 Nm (Area 3 of 4).
The main water here is Apalachicola River (Segment 3 of 4). Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8728593, East Bayou, Hwy 65 bridge, East Bay, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 9.1 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
