Anchorage Review for Cumberland Island South

Reviewed by: John Plattsmier on Mar 8, 2024
Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 44'
Draft: 4.5'

Anchored in 9 feet of water, a strong hold in mud, shared the anchorage with 5 sailboats and 2 motor boats. Very light boat traffic as it was a weekday. Watched the ferry load and unload visitors on the island.

We entered this cove as the other reviewers stated R112 marker and shared this anchorage with one boat. Anchor held tight in 8.1 feet of water for two nights. While we were here tide range was less than a foot. There are few fishing boats throughout the day and total silence after sunset.
