This anchorage is just off the island point. We did dinghy into Skull Creek Safe Harbor. The harbor master stated that he doesn't normally allow dinghy tie up but he would allow it.

Do not use this anchorage. There are 2 sunk vessels in this anchorage. We tangled up with one of them and ended up losing our anchor and a section of chain. We tried and tried to pull the anchor only to be told later by the divers we hired that it was completely tangled. All the local diving services knew when I called that I was tangled up with a submerged shrimp boat. Divers from Coastal Diving were great but it was tangled so badly that they couldn't get it free.
Other than that, it was great until we tried to leave.

It is an easy dinghy ride to restaurants in the Marinas. We had 20 to 25 kn come through and never moved. Great Anchorage with good protection from the south. I would avoid the Anchorage further south from here because I have met people that pulled cables up off the sea bed. Saw lots of dolphins every day. There is a little boat traffic here on the weekends, but not too bad.
