Everyone who says there is no room to anchor at Mystic is correct.
We think the best deal around is to join the seaport as a member and
get dockage and entry to the museum for a reduced rate. Call ahead
for reservations. Being there at night, you have the run of the place
after the tourists have gone home. It's easy to imagine that the
clock has rolled back in time 200 years as you walk through the
village in the evening


We used to do that pretty much once a season. Unfortunately, Mystic
has changed along with everyone else, and the membership/dockage deal
is not such a deal any longer. It requires a higher level of
membership, and even with the dockage discount, it is just as
expensive as any commercial marina... unless you stay for a week or
so.
