We enjoyed our two nights here. We made sure to put mosquito nets up before sunset. It was windy when we stayed and this anchorage offered great protection from the North West, but I am sure bugs could be a problem if the weather is still. We found the dingy ride to Alabama Jacks magical as you go through a narrow, mangrove lined canal to get there.
