description
Entrance and maritime conditions: Entrance is marked with informal stakes, maintain a calm speed and good lookout and you'll be fine. It is best to enter from the Northeast as the inlet from the west is narrow and shallow. Larger sailboats can only dock at the outer end of the long wooden pier (enough length for 2 sailboats if the outermost one extends well beyond the pier corner). Good harbor but the winds from N and NW might be felt a bit in here.
Anchoring: One can moor alongside the long wooden pier, or with a stern anchor towards the peninsula in the middle of the harbor.
The area: Beautiful shallow sandy beach perfect for swimming. Diving board on the outside. The area is developed by BOF. Also, an open shelter with an outdoor toilet for overnight stays. Several fire pits. Very popular harbor on good weather days. Note that the guest dock itself is somewhat shaded and can be cold until late in the day, but there are beautiful sunbathing areas along the beach where the sun arrives early.
