Description:
Enter through the Marriott Resort channel and turn SE at red #4 or sound your way NE from ICW red #228. Anchor in 7 to 8 feet with excellent holding. Wind protection is only from east. Anchor comes up clean. Wakes from ICW and fishermen combined with a north wind can make this a bouncy stay.

Take the Marriott marked channel to the south east of the Ocean Blvd bridge. This is Open Water anchorage, however far from ICW chanel so wakes are minimal.
Shore dinghy access is a park boat ramp under the bridge. You may(?) be able to request Marriott Marina for short access to enjoy poolside lunch or dinner? Publix is 3/4 mile.
