Entrance into the bayou is unmarked but we trusted the charts and kept to the middle and saw 12-14ft all the way to the dock. In A7 slip we saw 5.5ft at low tide when leaving but seems to be soft bottom as we managed to get out with our 5.5ft draft. Once out of the slip depth dropped to 6ft. Fixed slips and electrical are all new. Short quarter fingers. Pumpout at the slip (did not use). Renovated toilettes, (free) laundry, showers. Fantastic service provided by marine management. They are really helpful and accommodating. The owner (Seth) is a sailor himself and understands our needs. This is not a happening place but if you want peace and quiet and some repairs done, this is it. There is not much around: adjacent small park and excellent Gene's Oyster Bar (cash only). If you have a bike or like long walks you can get to CVS and Waffle Shoppe. I had to knock of a star for the smell coming from a chemical plant when the wind is from the right (wrong?) direction and a lack of restaurants/groceries/etc nearby.

Convenient location. Good service. Good floating docks. Clean showers/restrooms. Out of 2 pumpout stations one was not working and another was blocked of by a (permanently?) docked vessel. No fuel either but their sister marina across channel has it. Watch out for sand bars on the channel boundaries. As usual watch out for tidal current when docking/undocking. Overall great staging point to jump to Dog Island / Carrabelle.
