Bahía Escondida (Hidden Bay, Samaná)
19° 11.7′ N · 69° 20.3′ W
A small bay just west of the Cayo Vigía causeway, with a private beach and two small hotels, a quieter alternative to the town anchorage.
Practical
Waypoint from the Virgintino DR guide (~2015): anchor in 9 ft over mud with some protection from the trades. A steep hill climb leads to Samaná town. Puerto Bahía Marina is about 1 nm further west.
