Monument Beach Anchorage

23° 31.7′ N · 75° 45.9′ W

The northern of the big three Stocking Island anchorages and, along with Sand Dollar, consistently rated the calmest — a wide sand shelf under the old salt beacon.

Practical

Anchor lights mandatory throughout Elizabeth Harbour; anchor buoys not permitted. Not a great spot in a hard front — the classic George Town Shuffle between Monument, Chat N Chill and Sand Dollar.

Calm-weather anchoring with the hike on your doorstep
