Town of Newport is a public boat ramp in New Castle County, Delaware, on Christina River. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: Hershey Run, Little Mill Creek, Red Clay Creek, White Clay Creek, Christina River and Delaware Bay waters north of East Point NJ to Slaughter Beach DE (Area 2 of 15).
The main water here is Hershey Run. 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 8550658, Millside, RR. bridge, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
