An open roadstead off the village with plenty of room but a grassy, rocky bottom, used as a lunch or settled-weather stop.

Practical

Position from the ActiveCaptain marker. Protection only from north-east and east. Bottom of grass and rock: a 2011 boat needed three tries to set; once hooked it was comfortable. Land near the village pier. Fair weather only.

Best for

A lunch stop with produce and a cafe ashore
