I want to spend a night anchored near a beach close by to Newport. I have narrowed it down to either Bonnet Shores, or Mackrel Cove. I have been to Bonnet Shores (by car) and saw some boats anchored out, but I am worried that it could get rough overnight there. However, when I look at the pictures I could find of the beach at Mackrel Cove, it looks kind of rocky (vs, sandy at Bonnet Shores). Will only be there for one night, and then going in to Newport for the next night, so I want to be close by.
Other options, I guess, is First Beach, or Second Beach, but I would prefer to be closer to Newport Harbor.
I am hoping some local members will chime in here and give me some recommendations.
