A Good Experience at York Island Anchorage (Statute Mile 5)
The is the second posting we’ve had in as many weeks about anchoring on the waters south of York Island. This has never been one of my personal favorites in the way of an overnight anchorage, but, hey, looks like I’m in the minority.
We spent three nights anchored off York Island, close to St. James City 11/23/10. Winds from NE and NW but didn’t seem too rolly to me. Tried Chino first but quite rough, open, and didn’t care for the ugly view of the power lines. Liked York Island anchorage. Many manatee and porpoise around. Easy trip to restaurants’“and Waterfront Restaurant close and allowed dogs outside. Everyone friendly. Anchorage has space for many boats and whole area is deep if you don’t get too close to shore. We took dinghy across to Tarpon Bay and fish were everywhere.
