Shelter Island is a public boat ramp in San Diego County, California, on San Diego Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Coastal Waters from San Mateo Point to the Mexican Border and out to 10 nm (Area 5 of 9) and Mexico Border S to 30N to 60 NM offshore (Area 1 of 3).
The main water here is Coastal Waters from San Mateo Point to the Mexican Border and out to 10 nm (Area 5 of 9). 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. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 9410166, San Diego, Quarantine Station, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 2.6 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
