1 24 2026 Dropped anchor a ways out to avoid bugs. Some bugs but not too bad. Light winds but anchor held firmly when we backed down to set it. Good cell phone signal and many TV stations from Miami on our antenna. We did not try shore access but believe you can dingy into creek and channel to take your dog.
