Ramps that reach this water
Longboat Pass is an inlet reached from boat ramps in Florida. SeaStatus lists 3 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Coquina Bayside Park (South) at 0.3 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 42013, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8726217, Cortez, Sarasota Bay, the closest one to here.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
