Very rolly with winds out of the south at 20-25 kts, but good holding. Only one boat here when we arrived, possibly derelict but with a good anchor so no worries. Boat ramp just south of us, tho not sure if useful for dinghies. Good Verizon signal. Depths 6.6 to 7.2 an hour past hight tide.

The noise from the causeway park was constant from 1:00 PM when we arrived until way passed 11:00 PM. Loud music from vagrant park users and loud exhaust and vehicle noise from the local "Ricers" was virtually unbearable. No law enforcement was observed during that time and the City of Jensen Beach doesn't appear to even have a police force. Too bad, the town residents allow this to go on un-controlled.

There is a boat ramp at the west foot of the bridge (we did not use), there is a dinghy dock by the fuel dock, follow the private channel. From there you will find restaurants, a Publix and more. The dinghy dock is closer to the service than the boat ramp.

Good holding in mud and gravel. No wind and wave protection except from the west.

I only see smaller shallow draft boats anchored here. County park with boat ramp makes dog walk and dinghy access great. Boat ramps on south side are easier to use. Excellent cell signal on Verizon.
