Village Near the North End Cedros. On review of Charlie's Charts, it will be noted that he lists a village up at the northend of Cedros with the indication "Fishing vessels anchor here, some kelp". The village is depicted in the photo and the author in this instance has never seen fishing vessels anchored here, a few pangas are moored here. The NorthEnd anchorage is about one mile south.
Sea lion colony at the northend anchorage, it should be noted that the photo was taken close to the beach and in the approximate location of the anchorage. As Charlie indicates, the bottom drops off sharply at a steep angle and therefore anchorage must be taken close in at a depth of about 25 feet. The author has set the anchor several times at about thirty feet with 5 to 1 scope and set with the engine and still was blown out. The squeamish may not want to anchor this close but, the current coming down the island and the wind coming offshore and down the canyon will hold the boat off.
