Not a great beginners spot on your own IMO.
Same could be said for Whale Harbor and a few other spots here in the keys. Anne's Beach is the #1 beginners spot in the upper keys. Follow a few rules and you won't put yourself in that situation. There is a bridge downwind. Don"t go further downwind then the south parking lot. No one under the bridge this year that I recall.
