Ensenada Harbor is at the northeast end of the rectangular bay and is protected by a mile long breakwater. The entrance is at the southern end of the breakwater which is marked by a light. This is a port and the northwest part of the harbor is for the cruise ship berths, the fishing fleet and the big ship boatyards. The anchorage is along the southeast. The southeastern shore is home to many small marinas (docks) and the small boat shipyard.
South of here, the new cruise ship wharf is finished and a new marina is under construction. The anchorage has a soft mud bottom, be sure to use enough scope, the wind will come up in the afternoon and boats will drag if not anchored properly. And there is a charge to anchor in Ensenada Harbor.
