Anchorage Review for Eagle Harbor - St. Joseph Peninsula
Reviewed by: Scott Hardin on Aug 21, 2020
Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 35'
Draft: 5.0'Overall Rating:4Holding:4Wind Protection:3Current Flow:3Wake Protection:3Scenic Beauty:4Ease of Shopping:1Shore Access:4Cell Service:3Anchored overnight here in May 2020 for the first time. I didn't fish but there were many dozens of birds fishing and a dozen guys wade fishing so there must be good fishing here. Not terrific wind protection but good enough in breezes from S to NW. Great place to hang out.

Anchorage Review for Smack Bayou

Small area but very protected for 2 or 3 boats. Lots of birds including many Osprey. Decent fishing. Be ready for no-see-ums, flies, and mosquitoes but I have had some nights when bugs were not a problem at all. It would be a long dinghy ride to Panama City across the bay but it would be doable in a reliable dink.
