Good answer from Michael Soots. Or follow somebody that knows what there doing.
It's about 5 miles from the marina. As for crossing the bar, it's tricky. You need a very small swell and a decently high tide. It's not included in the USCG bar observations so you have to go look. Stay to the South side as you go past the tips, then steer WNW until you get to deep water. Good luck!
