Outside No Name Harbor

• Mile Marker: 1096.0
• Lat / Lon: N 25° 40.526' / W 080° 10.022'
• Depth: 10
• Description:

  We anchored here on 3/1/21 in 10 to 12 feet with 90' of rode. Excellent holding and the chain came up clean. Anchor had some clay/sand which easily washed off in the drink as we idled away. This anchorage is used by several boats (12 others when we got there) but there is plenty of room. You can dinghy into the restaurant (Boaters Grill), Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, and No Name Harbor. The downside about this spot is that it is a short-cut for recreational and commercial fishermen who blast through the anchorage with no regard for the consequence of their wakes.
