Approach to the channel is fairly straightforward. Saw 6' depth at area marked "sand bar" on the chart, but otherwise @ 9-11 feet through to the cut. Anchored south of the marina in 14 feet with good holding. Strong tidal current in the channel so be aware of spacing for swing. Many tour boats and jet skis moving very quickly through and adjacent to the anchorage so take care if swimming or taking the dinghy in to shore. Marina staff is friendly and helpful. Diesel on large face dock and gas available for dinghy behind small market. Prices for everything are high (as can be expected here). Restaurants and services a short shuttle or car ride away.
