Guide
Approach and anchoring
Enter on the marked channel and turn well before green can buoy 7, clear of the rocks beyond it. The anchorage in the south-east of the harbour holds well in mud and is sheltered from west through south-east.
Practical
The harbour is a No-Discharge Zone, with anchoring limited to 48 hours from 15 May to 15 September. Fresh water is available. Coecles Harbor Marina and Boatyard, about 1.4 nautical miles north-west, offers a dinghy dock and facilities for a small fee.
Ashore
The Mashomack Preserve borders the southern shore of the harbour, a Nature Conservancy reserve with marked trails through oak woodland, fields and marsh, accessible by tender.
