About Drum Island Flats

Drum Island Flats is a bay reached from boat ramps in Virginia. SeaStatus lists 4 ramps that launch into it, the closest being York Haven Marina at 1.6 mi.

Bays are scored mostly on wind. Wave height counts for less than on open water, and comfort (temperature and chance of rain) counts for more. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44072, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8638051, Messick Point, Back River, the closest one to here.
