    Protected large bay with mediocre holding due to limestone and thin sand . The town has no charm and seems to be recovering from latest hurricanes . Very poor . Some large catamarans and a deep keel monohull moored alongside the fishing dock and got fuel carried from the station very 2' walk .

    Good stop in north DR. Some swell gets in so get one of the slips at the east end area . We were fine there a couple nights . Easy clearance in and out . A bit noisy in the night if near the restaurants. Otherwise perfectly fine . Entrance is marked by lighted red buoys and only one green near the port . Diesel and petrol at market prices ok . Very good supplies at Jumbo supermarket 25' drive away . Traffic is "DR" type so not for lighthearted . Staff is nice and helpful . No extra tips to anybody . We would repeat .
