About Herbert Harvey Drive

Herbert Harvey Drive is a public boat ramp in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, on Mississippi River. From here SeaStatus scores 7 waters: Mississippi River (Segment 12 of 12), Mississippi River (Segment 11 of 12), Bayou Plaquemines, Breton Sound (Area 4 of 5), Barataria Bay (Area 9 of 10), Coastal waters from the Southwest Pass of the Mississippi River to Port Fourchon Louisiana out 20 NM (Area 5 of 6), and 1 more.

The main water here is Mississippi River (Segment 11 of 12). 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 8760889, Grand Bay, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 6.2 mi from this ramp.
