- Description:
Anchor just southwest of the fishing pier (out of the channel) in 8 to 14 feet, and then dinghy in under the bridge to the small-boat docking area in the basin. Because of the strong tidal current in the anchorage, you may want to use a two-anchor Bahamian moor. You can also find anchorage just north of the small boat basin and the restaurants on Dock St. These are exposed anchorages with little protection. You should only anchor here in fair weather. This is not cruising boat territory.
