About Penningtons Point

Penningtons Point is a public boat ramp in Cecil County, Maryland, on Sasafras River. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Woodland Creek, Island Creek, Sassafras River and Chesapeake Bay north of Pooles Island MD.

The main water here is Chesapeake Bay north of Pooles Island MD. 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 44080, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8573349, Crumpton, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 11.8 mi from this ramp.
