Cockroach Cay Anchorage

25° 27.5′ N · 77° 48.6′ W

Good sand holding among sand spits and little cays between Frazers Hog and Little Whale, a better choice than Bird Cay when the wind clocks past east.

Practical

ActiveCaptain position. Follow the depth line up from the east side of Frazers Hog Cay. Good holding in 8 ft sand; a January 2024 boat held through 25 kt all day and night. 3-4 bars BTC. Sand bars uncover at low tide for dog walks and exploring. Wikivoyage also lists Cockroach Cay as a good anchorage with deep-water access from the east.
