Lafayette Reservoir is a public boat ramp in Contra Costa County, California, on Lafayette Reservoir. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: San Francisco Bay South of the Bay Bridge and San Pablo Bay, Suisun Bay, the West Delta and the San Francisco Bay north of the Bay Bridge.
The main water here is San Francisco Bay South of the Bay Bridge. 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 9414816, Berkeley, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 17.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
