About Humboldt Bay

Humboldt Bay is a nearshore coastal water reached from boat ramps in California. SeaStatus lists 7 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Eureka Public Marina at 0.0 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. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46022, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9418801, Eureka, the closest one to here.
