Little Harbour Cay North

Location: Berry Islands
Lat / Lon: N 25° 35.376' / W 077° 43.610'
Depth: 6'-8' Feet
Tide: 2.5'-3.0'
Description:
There are two moorings that have been installed by the owners of Flo’s Conch Shack at the north end of Little Harbour Cay to accommodate their own vessels. If a ball is empty be sure to contact Flo’s on VHF 68 before attempting to use it. Chester Darville, the owner of Flo's, advises that the balls have not been maintained. Anchor north of the moorings to ensure that you do not bounce off the bottom on a falling tide. The reward for getting it right is to find your boat floating in a nursery of sharks and turtles. In the prevailing east and southeast winds, the anchorage is a pretty place to spend the night but one would not want to be in this anchorage if a cold front is expected as it is completely exposed to the west. A falling tide against a west wind is not a good combination.

Spent 2 nights here in May 2022. The anchor on the map does not represent the deeper water. There are 2 local mooring balls located west of Little Harbor Cay. The best spot is between these "Balls" (Which maybe all of 6 inches in diameter. Very quiet and peaceful as most people seem to anchor farther North near Hoffman's Cay. This area is sand surrounded by grass so it is easy to see the sand spots in 7 - 8 feet of water for good anchor holding. Good protection everyway but open to the west. To the south is Flo's Conch Shack. Worth a dinghy ride to Flo's just to see the sea turtles and Starfish. Going north by dingy are great beaches at Devils Cay and Big Gaulding Cay. Farther north past Saddleback and Fowl Cay you can get to Hoffmans Cay and the Blue Hole.
