How to Use • Quick Steps for Finding What You Need

  3. Locate the X: Organized by mile marker from north to south, each X shows where you can find what you’re looking for. Just find the one closest to you!

The ICW Cruising Guide by The Boat Galley offers a detailed table of anchorages and mooring fields along the Intracoastal Waterway, with columns for mile markers, active captain name, depth, tide, protection, holding, current, wake, dog walking areas, and notes; locations like Dismal Swamp and Virginia Cut are categorized.
