Tidal creek anchorage off the Wando River near Daniel Island, South Carolina, with a mud bottom.
Guide
Approach and anchoring
Enter from the Wando River into the creek mouth on a rising tide and feel your way in with the depth sounder, as the side creeks shoal. Mud gives good holding. The bend in the creek shelters all but the northern sector.
Practical
No facilities at the anchorage itself. Daniel Island Marina lies 3.1 nm to the west and Wando River Marina 3.5 nm to the north-east, both reachable by tender for fuel and provisions.
