    We actually took a mooring ball but others in the harbor advised us holding is good. PAYS runs the moorings and can provide most needs for entertainment. The dinghy dock is a bit high at low tide and you may want to deploy a stern anchor. Portsmouth offers plenty of dining options, and Dominica offers a bounty of places to explore. We planned to stay two or three nights and stayed nine.
