Fort Frederica

We anchored right across from historic Fort Frederica. Because it’s the old ICW, the Frederica River is deep enough, even during low tide, as long as you watch for shoaling (look that one up!). There was a steady breeze to keep the no-see-ums away, so we enjoyed dinner on the flybridge, watching the tourists over at the fort and the sunset. There’s a kayak launch nearby that has a ladder from the bank to the water. Next time, we hope to stay longer so we can dinghy over and tour the fort. Not this time though, as we are trying to catch up with Barefootin’ and Simplicity. We got a good night’s rest (with no anchor alarms – she held fast, even in the brisk breeze) and then moved on at first light.
