I used it recently - no issues, plenty of parking, well maintained "facility", small dock, ramp fine.

Ditto Mermaid's post. It's plenty deep at low tide. (deeper than Niantic) Keep to the upstream side of the first bridge column and you will be fine. It's well lit at night and it has easy access from I95 / RT32. I have never had any problems there. The only thing it doesn't have is a convenient tackle / bait shop like Niantic.

I've heard people have gotten in trouble trying to blackfish tied up to/ around the bridge supports so probably not the best idea to do that smile1

Thanks for the input.
Went there Tuesday and only one other trailer in the big parking lot, worked out well.
