McMicking,Betterridge, Weinburg

IMHO, it really depends on what you want to while in the area. If it is the white sand beaches that are S of Jewsbury Peninsula, McMicking would be the first choice. We have only been in McMicking once, probably approx. 10 years ago, and my geriatric memory recalls that it was just OK. Our anchorage of choice now is Weinburg Inlet in which we usually anchor once or twice a season on our way N or S. The exploring, sea kayaking, is great fun in and around the islands. We usually anchor in the large basin off of Anderson Passage. From the sound of the anchor and rode (all chain) it is mostly rock. 60-70' and while 3:1 is normal for us, here we are at 4:1 for a good set. The basin just N of Finlaysun Peninsula via Dunn Passage has good holding. I have never seen another boat in there. Never been into Betterridge, maybe this year.
