you can anchor in Breton Cove - not far away froim the Ida Lewis YC. There are 3 separate dinghy docks
you can tie the tender to. But the anchorage can get crowded - and is to be completely avoided the
weekends when there are the Jazz and Folk festivals. Some boats have been known to use 2 anchors
here so pick your spot carefully. The holding is pretty good (mud) but beware an old, abandoned cable in
the anchorage which the harbormaster's office refuses, it seems, to do anything about.

I alwaysd look forward to returning to NPT! If you like boats it's hard not to love Newport! But,
it can get LOUD at night - although Breton Cove is significantly quiter than the Main Harbor.
