Rainbow Cay

  • Location: North Eleuthera
  • Lat / Lon: N 25° 20.017' / W 076° 26.077'
  • Depth: 8'-10'
  • Tide: 2.5'-3.5'
  • Description:

    Rainbow Cay is a small anchorage off a beautiful beach that is protected by the mass of Rainbow Cay and the mainland of Eleuthera. 

    The most prominent landmark in the area is the modern Sayle House Vacation rental which is located on the peninsula leading towards Rainbow Cay. There is protection from the northeast to east and there is good holding in sand, however with winds from any other direction the anchorage can be uncomfortable even when the winds are under 15 knots.

    The entire area is slated for development. With Saylle House at its nucleus, so do not be surprised to find the area busy with heavy equipment and construction crews.

    DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
