    This anchorage provides the best protection for south component winds on the west side of Great Harbour. It is good in NE-S winds. The holding is good in sand with grass.

    There is a great little beach to bring the dog to shore and relax with a few shaded spots.

    There can be a lot of boat traffic during the morning and late afternoon as the boats ferry employees out to the cruise ship islands. There are also some jetskis from the cruise ship islands so it's not the most peaceful anchorage.

    Tucked in closer and more south than marker location to get out of S/SW winds.
