Guide
Approach and anchoring
Reached from the Pungo River section of the ICW. The mud gives good holding, but the open southern and eastern quarters leave it exposed when the wind backs into that arc.
Practical
No facilities on site. Dowry Creek Marina lies 3.8 nm south-west with fuel, a waterfront restaurant and a convenience store. Belhaven, a regular ICW overnight stop, is 7.8 nm west and has further marinas and provisioning.
