San Sebastian River
- Location: Matanzas River
- Mile Marker: Mile 780
- Lat / Lon: N 29° 53.100' / W 081° 19.317'
- Depth: 8 Feet
- Description: This is not a good anchorage for a variety of reasons: the only deep water is directly in the narrow dredged channel, the reversing current here is very swift, and there is a sizeable fleet of shrimp trawlers coming and going at all hours that use the commercial docks upriver as their base. Also, the swinging room is very limited.
NOTE: Per Florida Statute 327.4109
The owner or operator of a vessel or floating structure may not anchor or moor such that the nearest approach of the anchored or moored vessel or floating structure is:
- Within 150 feet of any marina, boat ramp, boatyard, or other vessel launching or loading facility;
- Within 300 feet of a superyacht repair facility. For purposes of this subparagraph, the term "superyacht repair facility" means a facility that services or repairs a yacht with a water line of 120 feet or more in length; or
- Within 100 feet outward from the marked boundary of a public mooring field or a lesser distance if approved by the commission upon request of a local government within which the mooring field is located. The commission may adopt rules to implement this subparagraph.
