North Palm Beach Waterway Anchorage (Statute Mile 1013)
Posted by Claiborne | Posted on 21-12-2009
To reach this anchorage, you must leave the AICW northwest of the North Palm Beach/Parker Bridge, and then track your way upstream on a local canal, until you reach a squared-off cove. Be SURE to follow the link below to the “Eastern Florida Anchorage Directory” lisiting for this overnight haven, and check out the chartlet. You might also click on the chartlet to bring up a “Chart View” page centered on this haven.
Some have reported poor holiding ground here, but Captain Jean does not seem to have had this problem during her two visits (see below).
This is the second time we’ve anchored here and haven’t had a problem with holding but the wind isn’t very strong either, It’s a nice anchorage – over 13 feet at low tide in the center of the first basin and plenty of swing room.
