Our experience
We anchored in two different spots. First, outside the breakwater, where the view is very beautiful and the water level is higher, but where we were also more exposed.
Then we moved inside the breakwater. The seabed there is shallower, so you have to choose carefully where to anchor and not forget to take the tide into account. However, we were much better protected.
The Atlantic Highlands anchorage is located just at the harbor entrance.
Some boats manage to find shelter alongside the wall. Otherwise, you can anchor a little farther out, but you will then need more depth. It’s a bit busier with maritime traffic, but perfectly acceptable.
During our stay, we were able to use the dinghy dock without issue. We used the one at the boat launch.
