Little River, a long narrow inlet in Linekin Neck on the west side of the entrance of Damariscotta River, has a number of private float landings and fish wharves. A junction gong buoy about 350 yards south of Reeds Island marks the entrance. The channel is narrow and constricted at the entrance, but secure anchorage can be found in 5 to 12 feet in the outer section and 13 to 18 feet in the inner section of the inlet above the fish wharves on the east side. Small craft anchor near the head of the inlet above the narrows.
A ledge, locally known as The Bull, is in the middle of the entrance; local knowledge is required to carry the best water.
