• Location: Northern Exuma

• Depth: 8'-10'
• Tide: 2.5'-3.0'
• Description:

  Tucked into a small cove off a well-groomed private beach there is good holding and acceptable protection from all directions.  It is a viable candidate for riding out a cold front, however there is only room for one vessel. The protection in the anchorage is derived from the surrounding cays however a strong swell from Exuma Sound will cause some rolling. The mooring field in Cambridge Cay is a better choice for heavy weather however it will fill quickly when bad weather is forecast.

  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.
