Report from Titusville Municipal Marina and Mooring Field, AICW Statute Mile 879
Located south-southeast of unlighted daybeacon #27, Titusville Municipal Marina is A SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSOR!
We had an excellent experience with the Titusville Marina and crew (2x). We would definitely return.
People considering this mooring field need to be aware it has an uninterrupted 2 mile fetch NE. When the cold fronts come through, this place gets bouncy.

I’ve anchored here many times, always in the deeper water between the marina channel and the bridge. Today, arriving after dark i was surprised to see all the echos on the radar from anchored boats were on the north side of the channel in the more narrow stretch of water between the shallows and the channel.
When i passed south into the old anchorage i found myself into a mine field of floats. since they are all lined up in a grid I have to assume Titusville is building a new mooring field’¦ I ended up anchoring just north of the marina channel.
I knew some towns are setting up mooring fields, I guess i missed the news or the LNM on this one’¦ of course, arriving at night made it more interesting!
I’m all for moorings but the obvious downside is that here we’re loosing the best spot as the area north of the bridge is closer to the ICW, more exposed to wakes, and a lot more narrow as the shoals extends further from shore.
