About Pole Yard

Pole Yard is a public boat ramp in Georgetown County, South Carolina, on Santee River. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: South Santee River, North Santee River, Coastal waters from South Santee River to Edisto Beach SC out 20 NM (Area 10 of 10) and Coastal waters from Murrells Inlet to South Santee River SC out 20 NM (Area 1 of 4).

The main water here is South Santee 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. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8662793, North Santee Bridge, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.6 mi from this ramp.
