About Russ Point

Russ Point is a public boat ramp in Beaufort County, South Carolina, on Fripp Inlet. From here SeaStatus scores one water: Coastal waters from Edisto Beach SC to Savannah GA out 20 NM (Area 3 of 8).

The main water here is Coastal waters from Edisto Beach SC to Savannah GA out 20 NM (Area 3 of 8). 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. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 41033, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8668498, Fripps Inlet, Hunting Island Bridge, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 10.5 mi from this ramp.
