The Blue Hole, Hoffman Cay

• Location: Berry Islands
• Lat / Lon: N 25° 37.150' / W 077° 44.510'
• Depth: 7'-9'
• Tide: 2.5'-3.0'
• Description:

  As the name implies, this anchorage is the closest point to the famous blue hole on Hoffman Cay.  In prevailing conditions the protection and the holding in the anchorage is very good, and those who have made the effort to anchor on this part of Hoffman (as opposed to farther south) will be rewarded for their diligence if conditions pick up.

  The anchorage is exposed from all directions except east, but the shallow water and drying bars manage to knock down the worst of the waves. The holding here is good enough for a properly set anchor of adequate size to ride out a cold front if your crew can handle some chop.
