About Garrett Bay Road

Garrett Bay Road is a public boat ramp in Door County, Wisconsin, on Lake Michigan. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI, Green Bay south of line from Cedar River to Rock Island Passage and north of a line from Oconto WI to Little Sturgeon Bay WI (Area 10 of 10), Green Bay North of line from Cedar River MI to Rock Island Passage (Area 4 of 7) and Lake Michigan from Rock Island Passage to Sturgeon Bay WI 5NM offshore to mid lake (Area 4 of 4).

The main water here is Green Bay south of line from Cedar River to Rock Island Passage and north of a line from Oconto WI to Little Sturgeon Bay WI (Area 10 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. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 45002, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9087088. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 3.8 mi from this ramp.
