- Description:
There is a strong north south current in this area and the anchorage is in front of a small beach which is protected from the east only and is exposed in all other directions. In most conditions the wind and the current make for a rolly but pretty anchorage. The holding is fair in thin sand over rock. This anchorage is not recommended for overnight anchoring but is fine for a lunch stop.
