Ramps that reach this water
Hawk Channel from Craig Key to west end of Seven Mile Bridge out to the reef is a nearshore coastal water reached from boat ramps in Florida. SeaStatus lists 19 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Coco Plum Yacht Club Pay Ramp at 0.2 mi.
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 8723962, Key Colony Beach, the closest one to here.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
