Majors Harbor, stop

Majors Harbor

Majors Harbor is a sand-bottom anchorage tucked into Shelter Island on Long Island Sound, offering solid holding ground in a naturally sheltered spot. It's quiet and uncommercial — no docks, no services, just you swinging on the hook with good protection from most directions, though you'll want to watch out for southwest winds.
