About Pireway

Pireway is a public boat ramp in Brunswick County, North Carolina, on Waccamaw River. From here SeaStatus scores one water: Waccamaw River.

The main water here is Waccamaw River. 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. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 41024, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8660121, Little River (town), the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 5.4 mi from this ramp.
