Welcome to Clinton, CT

Two anchorage basins are near the end of the channel in Clinton Harbor. Several boatyards and marinas are in the harbor.
Mooring facilities are available by arrangement with the town dockmaster, who can be contacted through the town hall or police department.
The town maintains a fireboat at Clinton Harbor. The vessel can be contacted through the Clinton Police Department or the Coast Guard.
Navigation:
Wheeler Rock, with 1 foot over it, just outside the bar, is marked by a lighted buoy. A Federal project provides for a depth of 8 feet from Clinton Harbor to the town dock at Clinton.
The channel is marked by buoys to Cedar Island and thence by seasonal private buoys to the anchorage basin at Clinton. Buoys are shifted often due to changing channel conditions. Local knowledge is advised. From opposite the basin to the upstream limit of the Federal project, the southwest and south side of the channel is obstructed by a series of pilings. Boats may be moored between the pilings, caution is advised. Above the dredged channel, the midchannel controlling depth is about 2 feet in the Hammonasset River to the overhead pipeline and bridge crossing about 2 miles above Clinton. Private daybeacons mark this section of the channel.
A 6 mph speed limit is enforced in the harbor.
