Saunders Beach

25° 4.7′ N · 77° 22.2′ W · approximate

A popular local beach of white sand and clear water on West Bay Street, just east of Goodman's Bay and a short walk west of Arawak Cay: busy with Nassau families at weekends.

Practical

Coordinate approximate: on the shore just south of the ActiveCaptain 'Cable Beach East' anchorage pin (25.08045, -77.37034), which this catalog lists as Cable Beach East Anchorage (Saunders Beach). ActiveCaptain reports more surge protection here than at Cable Beach; land the dinghy on the beach, then walk or taxi to town. Expect crowds on weekends and holidays.
