    This is an excellent anchorage protected from the wind on all sides from wind & wave. It is in a residential neighborhood. Bottom is mud and provides excellent holding. Average depth is 10-15 feet. Shopping: At the south end of the bay there is a low bridge accessible only by power boat or dink. Once under this bridge, a quick turn to the left will take to a major food & wine store with a 'dink dock' (Winn-Dixie) for provisioning & supplies.
