Guide

Approach and anchoring

Open anchorage off the park shore, sheltered from north-west through south-west. The bottom is sand, weed and mud, so set the anchor with care over the patchy holding. The launch ramp needs a tide of about 8 feet, as the paved drop will not give a safe launch lower down.

Practical

A pier, 356 feet of moorage dock and five mooring buoys, one boat per buoy with no rafting. All moorage is first come first served, three nights maximum. Buoys are 10 dollars a night and boats over 45 feet must use the dock. Park office on 360 902 8844.

Ashore

The 86-acre park has a fishing pier, forest walking trails and picnic areas above the beach, with camping behind the shore.
