Anchorages: We started from Carolina Beach and did the trip in 2-1/2 days. We anchored in Cow House Creek at mi 383 the first night and it was gorgeous and well protected; had a lot of current so factor that into your anchor calculations. Nothing special for the second night, no trees and lots of current, we used Awendaw Creek at mi 435, holding was good, but no wind protection and again lots of current, both nights we were doing >1 kt at anchor. Check Skipper Bob's for other anchorages suggestions, and Army Corps website for latest shoaling info.
