This a small community with shops and restaurants available. The holding at this achorage was dismal. The bottom is almost like a jelly substance and even a 100 lb lewmar with 100ft of chain drug. The area is inundated with crab pots and the entry to this area is not very well marked. Crab pots, oyster fields and shallow areas make this a hazard to navigate.
