Turtle Creek RV Park is a public boat ramp in Matagorda County, Texas, on Tres Palacios Bay - Turtle Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: Horn Creek, Buttermilk Slough, Reed Creek, Turtle Creek, Turtle Bay and Matagorda Bay (Area 2 of 4).
The main water here is Matagorda Bay (Area 2 of 4). 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 8773701, PORT O'CONNOR, MATAGORDA BAY, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 18.2 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
