South Shore Marina is a boat ramp in Orleans Parish, Louisiana, on Chef Menteur Pass. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 11 of 12), Lake Borgne and Lake Pontchartrain (Area 10 of 13).
The main water here is Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 11 of 12). The Intracoastal Waterway is protected water, so wave height is not part of its score. It is scored mostly on wind, since a long open reach can still build a chop, and on the current where tides run through. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8761487, Chef Menteur, Chef Menteur Pass, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 0.3 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
