Description:
Nice little place to stop when wind is not south or north. Anchore in 15' of water and 200' from shore line. If you get ashore with your dinghy, tie it to a rock. Watch for low tide as the little beach is 400' long and about 2' depth. Current is about 3kt when high tide. the bottom is mud so anchor hold great the first time.

Also known as Ross Dock Park, this anchorage is good. Beautiful view of the NY skyline framed by the Geo Washington Bridge and NJ Palisades cliffs. Wind protection from only the west and a fairly strong current with the changing tides. There's a nice public park with a playground and picnic area you could dingy into to relieve your pet as well as a beautiful walking trail running along the Hudson River. Very limited boat traffic (only saw one ferry) in a wide part of the River. Excellent spot to drop the hook for the night!
