    The restaurant was actually closed for the season. We had the wrong address. We found this out after we docked our 43' sailboat. Had to dock stern in because the fingers weren't long enough for us.We found out at low tide the next morning that the rudder was in the mud and 7' deep mid ship. Not there fault no one was there
    when we arrived. The docks were in excellent condition and we ended up eating at Fishey Fishey. Awesome food too! We would definitely go back to both! Just not stern in.

    Great holding in 12 ' with a couple of knuckle head power boaters screaming through the anchorage. But we're used to that. Would definitely come back!

    I agree with everything Tom said. I would definitely recommend this great hide away protected anchorage.

    Shallow entrance then 4-7'. It took us 3 times to get the Anchor to hold (Rocna Vulcan). Only able to run out 60' of chain due to narrow area. I would definitely use this anchorage again.
