Are there any regulations that prohibit you from dropping anchor out of the way and either swimming in or using a kayak to get to the docks? Has anyone ever done this?
Unknown.

I often see MP in these areas. I suggest you ask them or call their office.

What I envision as the proposal is the following:

Boat is motored to a safe spot in a dock where passengers can step off.

Captain motors away to a spot where anchoring will not interfere with other traffic.

Captain sets the anchor and paddles to shore in kayak.

Kayak is left on shore, captain joins passengers at restaurant.

Kayak disappears, captain swims...
