    Good holding in 6-8 feet but you will be close to a quarter mile from the shore.

    Nice marina and well protected. Good depths on the outside of the dock. Ferry service picks up at the marina if you need to get to Treasure Cay. Fuel, water, power, wifi all available. The staff is very helpful and can arrange a golf cart rental if needed. When we stayed they had a stay three nights and the fourth is free special which was great.

    This is a nice anchorage but there is no room to anchor. The entire area is taken up by a few commercial, but mainly private mooring balls, or vessels permanently anchored or abandoned.

    Used mooring ball for night. Was able to pay using credit card over the phone so we did not need to dinghy in.

    5-8 foot depths just off ICW. An okay spot for the night. Spoil island nearby for dog walking. Transiting vessels on ICW will cause wakes.

    Easy entrance to anchorage. Protection from N but open to all other winds. 20ft depths in center but then shallows to 8 ft. Only traffic are vessels entering/exiting marina.
