Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approached from Long Island Sound on the inside route between Indian Neck and Sachem Head. Holding is good in mud. The spot is sheltered from NW through W to SW but lies open to winds from the south and east, so it suits settled weather only.
Ashore
Pine Orchard Yacht Club lies 1.5 miles NW for a tender landing, and Sachem's Head Yacht Club is 1.9 miles E. The village shore of Pine Orchard is lined with early 20th-century houses.
