How deep is the water in the channel behind the Buttonwood campsites, and how close is the drop off? Also, is there a strong current in the channel? Thanks!

The main channel is reported to be 24' deep, however, many sources indicate 9'-10' which is likely the typical channel depth. Off the camping area is about the same. There is a current at peak tide changes that seemed to be a maximum of 1-2 mph.

The channel that is along the campsites is a good 10 to 15 feet deep yet you have to be in the middle coming into the boat dock at the buttonwood loop. Both side come up very shallow and are rocky. As you come in
