South Benjamin Island

Lat / Lon: N 46° 04.690' / W 082° 15.020'
Description:
South Benjamin Island has a cut in its southern point that can hold over 10 boats. Wind direction sometimes makes this the preferred anchorage. Move into the cove as deep as your draft allows. An exploration of the shoreline around South Benjamin Island may find local boats anchored in one of the many tiny bays. These are open to southerly winds.
DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.

Listed as South Benjamin-2 on the charts, It is a small cove that is well protected from all but south wind. There is room for 5-6 boats at anchor, there were 4 when we were there and it didn't feel tight. Shore access is good. We had 4g cell service.
