About Whittier

Whittier is a public boat ramp in Chugach Census Area, Alaska, on Pacific Ocean - Passage Canal. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Passage Canal and Northwest Prince William Sound.

The main water here is Passage Canal. 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. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46081. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 4.3 mi from this ramp.
