Lunch and a Walk – Keegan Clair Docks – Indian Shores, Florida

Keegan Clair Docks – “Let’s Stop for Lunch.”

Something new today, we found Keegan Clair Docks, a free day dock for boaters, just off the ICW, six miles south of Clearwater. We thought we’d take a break on our day’s cruise to stop and have lunch on the boat followed by a short, two-block walk into Indian Rocks with access to the beautiful beaches. The dock is free during the day but has one of the longest lists of rules we’ve ever seen, it’s prominently posted near the dock. One of the main rules listed is that the docks are not meant for overnight usage. We think it is very forward-thinking of a community to provide this kind of service to boaters, easy access to their town while cruising by on the ICW.

We have never seen so many rules, especially for such a few docks. At least nothing is left to guess. If in doubt just consult the rules on the sign. Without a doubt, we knew we could not spend the night here, but it was a bright spot in our day as a quick stop on our trek south, down the ICW.
