    Very good moorings. Dinghy dock is located to the south of the mooring field. Beach was right across the street and had public restrooms and outside showers. Uber's were available to take us into this beach town, but it is within walking distance as well. Larry who manages the moorings was very cordial and helpful. Reserved and paid $20.00 for mooring via Dockwa. Summer Fireworks held every Thursday night at 9:00, which we enjoyed! It is a NO WAKE zone and people obeyed those signs near the mooring field.

    Anchored near fixed bridge. Holding was good. Dinghy dock was a nice perk. Roberts grocery was nearby, but typical high priced beach market. Had some prepared salads and a deli. The boat traffic through the anchorage was BAD BAD BAD! Especially on a weekend when we were there. Locals pulling skiers blasting by at full speed. Not a peaceful anchorage by any means!

    Spent one night here, holding was excellent! 25 Knot squall came through at 2am and we held fine with our Rocna. Black sand/mud bottom..we would suggest rinsing chain on way up. Only down side to this anchorage was the NOISE of the military helicopters/Ospreys day and night until 2am. Also cannot go ashore as it belongs to military.

    First visit to Georgetown. Good holding; easy access to public docks for dinghy; trolley tour well worth the $15.00; great restaurants, Sat. Fresh Market and fun little shops to browse through on front street.
