Ramps that reach this water
Whitefish Bay (U.S. Portion)/Whitefish Point to Point Iroquois MI is a nearshore coastal water reached from boat ramps in Michigan. SeaStatus lists 7 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Whitefish Point 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 4403587, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9099004.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
