Soldiers Cay-South
- Location: Exumas
- Lat / Lon: N 24° 19.896' / W 076° 33.467'
- Depth: 17 feet
- Description:
This is a relatively deep water anchorage with approximately 3 foot tide. There is significant current in the channel but we sat well with both N and NW winds up to 15 knots, including with current against wind. There are rocks and coral on both sides of the channel. Drop anchor in deep sand in the center and anchor rode will stay away from coral with 120 foot scope. We were anchored just off the private dock but you should be able to anchor north or south for several hundred feet. Excellent cell service from ALIV and TMobile/BTC. Note there are 3 park mooring balls to the south.
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.
