This is a quiet anchorage at the bottom of Meldrum Bay, perhaps 750 yards from the marina. It has very good wind and current protection. The bottom is weedy, so it took three attempts to set the anchor so it would hold. There is nothing around the marina in the way of restaurants or other services, and the area is only moderately dog friendly. We wound up using the marina docks to get the dogs ashore.
