• Location: Beaufort River
• Mile Marker: Mile 536
• Lat / Lon: N 32° 25.283' / W 080° 39.767'
• Depth: 7-14 Feet
• Description:

  This anchorage is somewhat narrow for larger vessels. Enter as if heading to the marina, favoring the red side of the channel, as there is only 6 feet at MLW near green daybeacon 1. Then anchor in a minimum of 7 feet of water past the marina. Anchored boats pay a fee to dock dinghies at the marina. Or, you can anchor closer to the public boat ramp before the marina and dinghy ashore there.
