Smiths Creek is a public boat ramp in Beaufort County, North Carolina, on Smith Creek. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: Pamlico Sound (Area 1 of 5), Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 9 of 10), Goose Creek, Neuse and Bay Rivers, Upper Spring Creek and Pamlico and Pungo Rivers.
The main water here is Pamlico and Pungo Rivers. 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 8655133, Oriental, Neuse River, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 10.7 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
