Anse de Public Anchorage
17° 54.2′ N · 62° 51.3′ W · approximate
The bay between Gustavia's lighthouse headland and Corossol, backed by the commercial port, the fuel berth and the Saint-Barth Yacht Club sailing school.
Practical
Position is mid-bay, derived from OpenStreetMap bay and beach positions (approx). Sources give no reliable depth or holding data for Public - sound carefully, keep clear of the commercial quay, ferry traffic and the sailing-school area, and confirm with the port on VHF 12 whether anchoring is permitted on the day. The AMC supermarket and the fuel berth are a short walk away, which makes it handy for a provisioning stop. Exposed to north-west swell.
Best for
Short stop for fuel and AMC provisioning
Season
Settled trade-wind weather only
