Peaceful anchorage only disturbed by the local Thimble Island tour boat and early morning birds. Anchor set solid in black mud in 12ft of water. We were only going to stay one night but it was so calming we stayed 2. Great protection by the different private islands from the W-NE winds. Completely exposed to South. In light winds the current will turn your boat more than the wind. We didn't go ashore but in light winds you could zoom around the islands to Branford for town things.
