About Georgetown Visitor Center

Georgetown Visitor Center is a public boat ramp in District of Columbia, District of Columbia, on C&O Canal. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Tidal Potomac from Key Bridge to Indian Head MD, Washington Channel, Potomac River (Segment 1 of 7) and Little River.

The main water here is Tidal Potomac from Key Bridge to Indian Head MD. 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 8594900, WASHINGTON, Washington Channel, D.C., the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 11.3 mi from this ramp.
