About Penn Cove County Park (North)

Penn Cove County Park (North) is a public boat ramp in Island County, Washington, on Penn Cove. From here SeaStatus scores 8 waters: Grasser's Lagoon, Oak Harbor, Saratoga Passage, Northern Inland Waters Including The San Juan Islands (Area 10 of 18), Penn Cove, Admiralty Inlet, and 2 more.

The main water here is Penn Cove. Bays are scored mostly on wind. Wave height counts for less than on open water, and comfort (temperature and chance of rain) counts for more. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46125, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9447929, Coupeville, Penn Cove, Whidbey Island, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.3 mi from this ramp.
