Ramps that reach this water
Allan Pass is an inlet reached from boat ramps in Washington. SeaStatus lists 9 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Skyline Marina at 1.2 mi.
Inlets are scored on wind, waves and, more than on any other water, the tidal current: an ebb running against an onshore wind is what makes an inlet dangerous. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46118, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9448683, Burrows Bay (Allan Island), the closest one to here.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
