Anchorage Review for Rose Island South - Sandy Toes

Reviewed by: Rey, ÎLE DE REY, on Apr 18, 2024
Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 14'
Draft: 1.3'

Anchorage allowing you to escape from Nassau which is 6 miles away. Good hold in the sand. We were 20 kn from the East and the sea is flattened by the remains of a dike!!!
Go and visit the anchorage with the dinghy, obviously a construction project that failed

Very good anchorage, not very sheltered because the swell swirls around.
The marina is fun to visit and watch the sharks at the end of the dock!!!

Rating: 5

Marina which has just been renovated!! Beautiful pontoon and electrical terminals and brand new water. Distributes 110/240v at 60 Hz unfortunately for us the electrical power was lacking at our terminal so it was impossible to have electricity! Potable water
For a catamaran 45 ft
Price: $2.50 per foot excluding tax
Electricity: $0.75 per KWh excluding tax
Water: 0.20 cents per gallon
Taxes: 10%

Diesel at the end of the pontoons $5.25 per gallon

Very friendly and welcoming staff, helping you with mooring. Trash bins in front of your boat emptied every morning. A large laundry room at $3 per machine. A swimming pool accessible to sailors.
Not many places available for catamarans, you must book by telephone as they do not respond to emails.
A shopping center just behind with a Very good Solomon Fresh Market but very expensive (20 minutes walk Super Value significantly cheaper) 3 Shipchandler on the road leading to the bridges
A very good solution to leave your boat safe and visit Atlantis (free from 6 p.m. ?) but the slides and other attractions close at 7 p.m. you have to act quickly...
The only drawback is that the canal is crisscrossed by motorboats from morning until evening and as a result there are a lot of waves in the marina, so plan for defenses.
Definitely the best marina for passing boats in Nassau ??
