About Whale Pass

Whale Pass is a public boat ramp in Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area, Alaska, on Pacific Ocean - Whale Passage. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Clarence Strait (Area 1 of 9) and Dixon Entrance to Cape Decision out to 15 NM (Area 2 of 2).

The main water here is Clarence Strait (Area 1 of 9). 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. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 6.6 mi from this ramp.
