    Nice big anchorage on top of a 12 foot deep at low tide mud flat. Our anchor hooked right up and we enjoyed a calm night here. Kind of exposed so I'm not sure I would choose this location for any sort of weather, but great pull over sleep and get back to it spot. There is a decent amount of current but nothing crazy. We did experience a few wakings from maniac center consoliers trying to get home before dark. When the sun went down the traffic ended.

    Stayed here for 2 nights in mid April on a weekend. There is room on the west side for several boats both north and south of the No Wake sign. You are off the ICW but small power boats will pass on both sides of you regardless, so you will have wake. The depth is good to the marsh but you will experience the 180 current swing. Holding seemed good during the swings. Several other boats were here when we were here. There did not appear to be any close places to get ashore. Note that you cannot dock at the UGA Aquarium.
