We anchored here in September in 20 feet to have enough room to swing. Anchor skipped a bit before it held. There was not much current, so we were moved a lot by the wind. No wake protection. It was a good spot, well off the sailing line, in an area with few options. One bar T-Mobile intermittent only.
