Blounts Creek Anchorage (21.8 Nautical Miles off the AICW, on Pamlico River)
Blounts Creek Anchorage
Lat/Lon: 35 26.038 North/076 58.261 West
Location: south of Blounts Bay and marker #2, and north of the charted 15 foot fixed bridge
Minimum Depth: 8 feet (see special note below)
Special Note: the entrance to Blounts Creek from Blounts Bay is extremely tricky and inadequately marked. The use of a GPS chartplotter is mandatory, and, even then it’s possible to find the bottom. This anchorage should only be entered by adventurous skippers piloting craft that draw 4 feet or less
Swing Room: sufficient room for vessels as large as 36 feet
Foul Weather Shelter: Superb, as good as it gets
