Sometimes mooring balls belong to a town or city and have no marina privileges. Other times they belong to a marina. Sometimes you can anchor and pay a nominal fee to use a nearby marina's facilities. Most of this is covered in Active Captain but I don't think there's a way to filter it. Active Captain is on Facebook and you can ask specific questions there.


Isle of Hope, GA marina will let you use the marina facilities but there's a charge. Carolina Beach, SC has moorings but I don't know if there's a nearby marina that will allow you to use their facilities. Annapolis MD has moorings and I believe they include the use of the facilities. The facilities aren't much though.


As posted above, the Waccamaw River has several nice anchorages. No mooring balls though. There are a few marinas that may or may not let you use their facilities for a fee.
