25° 8.7′ N · 78° 0.1′ W
A daytime stop off Nicholls Town's long sweep of beach, inside the reef between Morgan's Bluff and Conch Sound.
Practical
Position from ActiveCaptain. A lunch hook only, except in the most settled weather or westerlies (ActiveCaptain 2009 review, still the only one). Approach via Bethel Channel from the south, or come down from the Morgan's Bluff channel between the reef and the bluff and beach, watching for reef. Easy beach landing; there is also a very tall public dock. Do not enter Conch Bay to the south: ActiveCaptain calls it a maze of coral heads.
Best for
A day stop for groceries and the beach
