Lighthouse Bay Resort Ruins

17° 39.1′ N · 61° 51.2′ W

The wreck of a hotel on the lagoon barrier at Low Bay. Hurricane Irma undercut it in 2017 and it partly slid into the sea; it is now a landmark for the dinghy crossing into the lagoon.

Practical

Coordinate verified: OpenStreetMap (way 394469914). Cruisers use it as a reference: the usable breach into the lagoon has been just south of the old hotel. Guard dogs have been reported there, and Noonsite carried a 2021 warning of aggressive dogs on the sand spit nearby. Do not land or wander near the buildings, and report problem dogs to police (Barbudaful).
