Safe Harbor Beaufort Marina.This is a wonderful Marina. Michael and Mikka met us, caught our lines, helped us get docked. They hooked us to power, water, etc. The wind was quite high. They worked diligently to get us safely secured. They told us a little about the town, the festivals. This Marina is very close to the town, you can walk to restaurants. There is a beautiful walk along the water with swings so you can take time to enjoy the day. They do have showers. They have a ship store. Hats off to Michael and Mikka for their assistance in welcoming us to the Marina and helping us get docked.It is a beautiful place to stay.Period.

This was a great marina. When we arrived they met us at the dock and welcomed us to the marina. Provided all the information necessary about bathroom codes, showers, restaurants near the marina. We walked to Tubby's and had fish tacos and a cold beer. We also went in River Supply and picked up an anchor wash down hose. Showers and bathrooms were clean. The staff were extremely welcoming and southern hospitality was plenty.

Anchorage Review for South Altamaha River

Reviewed by: Kay Wilson on Mar 14, 2024
Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 42'

Meridian 408, 4 ft. Draft, 35 lb. Delta plow anchor. This was an exciting Anchorage for us, as we just purchased our boat and this was our very first Anchorage.

We arrived near low tide. Anchored in 6 ft. of water. The tide went down about 2 more feet before swinging back to incoming. The anchor bit on the first try and held well all night. There was also a derelict boat in this Anchorage, but didn't bother us a bit.

The anchorage is beautiful, with plenty of room. The winds were calm, so I can't comment on protection. The current was pretty strong, but the anchor held. Also saw a georgous sunset and watched the sun rise the next morning. The coordinates where we anchored were North 31° 18.701 West 81° 24.44.
