The tie-down anchor includes a continuously formed anchor having a lower leg extending in a first direction in a first horizontal plane, a vertical section connected to the lower leg and perpendicular to the first horizontal plane, an upper leg that is parallel to the lower leg and lies in a second horizontal plane spaced above the first horizontal plane by the length of vertical section, and a loop above the vertical section and the upper leg. Wherein the lower leg can be inserted within the gap between adjacent decking boards and the loop turned to trap the anchor between the decking boards such that the upper leg and lower leg are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the gap.
