Excellent protected Anchorage. Plenty of swing room. Anchor came up with only a little mud. No bugs even though still warm. Work boats come and go on East side. Only fishermen and crabbers pass by. No place to go ashore if you have a pet. Keep an eye on vessel traffic when leaving as it is both GICW and Port of Orange ship channel. Recommend using day shape due to so much commercial traffic. $25/night. I did email ahead to reserve the spot.

Not a real marina, just very rugged and misaligned pilings stuck in the mud. There are small boats tied off to these which resembles an order of "slips". Used every single fender, ball and even a throwable to try to protect the hull from short cut off piling. Got stuck in the mud right next to the “dock “. Landed on a pile of unmarked rocks right next to entrance when leaving. It is probably a good place to get bait if you are fishing in the bay, and they have a pretty good restaurant. If a storm was not brewing we would have moved on.
