Bill Baggs State Park

No Name Harbor is marked with an anchor on the right.
This anchorage in No Name Harbor is probably one of the best we have been in. It is not free...they ask for $20/night honor system. But it helps to keep the showers and laundry clean and in good shape.  there is room for 14 boats maximum, is protected in all directions, and just pretty. Yesterday we walked to the lighthouse, which is not a working one anymore because they built lighted towers along the reefs to warn boats of the hazard.  But they have done a beautiful job restoring the lighthouse and keepers quarters. There are hiking paths, bicycle paths, and fishing stations along the bay side. Lots of wildlife but we have noticed a lack of birds!!
