About Shipping Creek

Shipping Creek is a public boat ramp in Queen Anne's County, Maryland, on Shipping Creek. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Chester River to Queenstown MD, Eastern Bay, Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point MD, Chesapeake Bay from Sandy Point to North Beach MD and Choptank River to Cambridge MD and the Little Choptank River.

The main water here is Eastern Bay. 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 44063, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8572770, Matapeake, Kent Island, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 5.0 mi from this ramp.
