Centered on the Location of This Anchorage:
We anchored here recently and found the water deep and holding good. Our spade dug in instantly.
Our 2009 copy of Skipper Bob’s Guide to Anchorages warns not to enter or leave through the northern end of the anchorage but we found good water in the center when we left northbound.
Stayed here the night of 5-3-10
We entered from the southern end at low tide lowest we saw was 5.5 ft Holding was good and had plenty of swing room for our 55′ fdmy
The dolphins kept us company in the evening and in the morning there was a bald eagle standing on the shoreline.
We would anchor here again.
