Draft: 4.0'Overall Rating:5Holding:5Wind Protection:4Current Flow:5Wake Protection:5Scenic Beauty:5Shore Access:4Very nice anchorage, room for several large boats, we were the only ones at the time. Anchor came up clean, anchored right at the icon. Several small boats came in to visit the beach. No wakes from passing barges. Some aircraft noise from local Navy station, they played the anthem quite loudly at sundown. Overall very nice.

Right off the ICW, 53 miles from Homeport Marina. We anchored in 11' of water where you can actually see the bottom! The anchor hooked right away. Small boats anchored near shore where people and dogs were chilling out!

Sandy bottom with good holding. Track in/out is well represented on the charts. Go in/out just west of Green 51. If weather is changing, be ready for foghorns to sound like they're just on top of you in the middle of the night although theyre in the ICW channel!
