Nice overnight and day ancorage in 30 feet of water, beyond the drop-off there is good mud bottom. This area is VERY popular with locals on weekends as several dozens of boats will anchor in the shallow water near the shore. There is a lot of boat traffic on the weekends and evenings.
Good wind protection from the west.
