Cape Haze

• Location: Placida Harbor

• Lat / Lon: N 26° 50.710' / W 082° 17.190'
• Depth: 8-10 Feet
• Description:

  Cape Haze offers a nice, quiet anchorage northeast of red daybeacon "30" in 9-foot depths surrounded by private homes. Set your anchor carefully as the bottom is mucky. This is a pleasant anchorage with more protection from the GIWW than is evident from the chart.
