    Great place to stop, hug the mile marker 19 sign coming in on the south side. We stopped twice this trip. The lowest we saw was 4 feet in a couple of places, most around 6-7 feet (at low tide). Easy dinghy and walk to the beach on the ocean side.

    Fueled up with diesel, prices reasonable. Stayed for the night, super great service, very friendly, very nice marina, lots and lots of boats, well protected from ICW. Highly recommend.

    My home marina, floating docks. Low tide entry / exit can be an issue. Great staff and facility. Publix is almost across the street. Reasonable rates.

    We had a mechanical issue, stayed here for 10 days. The staff is great! Nice Marina, has a little bar and very good facilities. They also have an RV campground and seem to constantly have activities going on, very nice! Close to lots of good restaurants. Highly recommend this place. Winds out of the south can make for a bumpy ride.

    North side is deeper, good holding on this side also. What a current! we stayed over night, sunset and sunrise were amazing! The fort is gorgeous. Most people keep their wake down, but there are few late night early morning fisherman that speed through. Current guarantee's a changing view.

    Black sticky mud holding, great north wind protection. No problem on the depths, south of bridge 1000 feet perpendicular to ICW stayed in the 8-15 range. We had some 15 knot north winds, water was calm. easy in and out. lots of space.
