    Definitely worth the stop. Anchored outside the local full timers. Short dinghy ride to the free dock. Great burger at Pub Americana. Nice Main Street with art and antiques, ice cream, etc. Hardware store open since 1875 under the same family ownership. Nice waterfront park.

    Nice town of 1900's restored homes. Fresh Amish baked goods arrive at 2pm Thursday at the Front Street Grocery. Dinghy to Clyde Phillips Seafood Market for fresh seafood. Great stop.

    Dinner at Spoon River was worth the stop. 5 star meal right on the ICW is a great break. Food Lion is 15 minute walk from the free dock near the bridge but 2 cars offered us a ride coming and going. Ace Hardware and a brewery downtown. Thumbs up for Bellhaven.
