Treasure Cay - Inside

Location: Abacos
Lat / Lon: N 26° 40.262' / W 077° 16.939'
Depth: 6'-8'
Tide: 2.0'-2.5'
Description:
The inner anchorage at Treasure Cay is on the site of the former mooring field. When the mooring field was installed anchoring inside was prohibited but since Hurricane Dorian only a few of the nearly 20 mooring balls remain. The remaining moorings have not been inspected in years and should be used with caution, if at all.
If you are looking for refuge from heavy weather the Inner Anchorage at Treasure Cay is among the most protected in Abaco, but it is important to take precaution to not swing over sunken debris when setting anchor.

We stayed here several days in a blow, it is sheltered but not perfectly, still wind coming over the trees. Anchor held well, there were 11+ boats in the basin. Others had anchored in Brigantine Bay and in the old marina basin. There is nothing left of the old marina, many houses blown away. Many empty lots and damaged houses, although some rebuilding. Easy dingy ride to old marina, small food mart, liquor store, gift store and Cafe la Florence restaurant. Across the road is the spectacular Treasure Cay beach, can walk for miles.\ on nice hard flour like sand at the waters edge. The There was no-one collecting $$ for mooring or anchoring. The five mooring balls were unused and didn't look maintained. The fuel dock on the way in appears to be working and the chain across the entrance looks like it's being used also, a dozen or so red buoys strung across. Some wake from passing tour boats.

Good holding. Register with the marina (the signs say). Cable closes the harbour 10pm-5am. Supermarket, liquor store, laundry, ice, bars and restaurants walking distance from dinghy dock. Diesel and gas at fuel dock (entrance of harbour).
