About Morehead City

Morehead City is a public boat ramp in Carteret County, North Carolina, on Bogue Sound (Intracoastal Waterway). From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Neuse and Bay Rivers, S of Cape Lookout NC to Surf City NC out to 20 NM (Area 5 of 5), Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 4 of 10) and Calico Creek.

The main water here is S of Cape Lookout NC to Surf City NC out to 20 NM (Area 5 of 5). 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 TEC2831, N.C. State Fisheries, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 2.1 mi from this ramp.
