About Sandy Point State Park

Sandy Point State Park is a public boat ramp in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, on Chesapeake Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Chester River to Queenstown MD, Eastern Bay, Little Magothy River, Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point MD and Chesapeake Bay from Sandy Point to North Beach MD.

The main water here is Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point 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 8575229, Mountain Point, Magothy River, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 11.9 mi from this ramp.
