Rendezvous Bay Anchorage (Montserrat)
16° 48.6′ N · 62° 12.5′ W · approximate
A small cove under steep green bluffs just north of Little Bay, backed by Montserrat's only white-sand beach and reachable only by boat or a hilly trail - often calmer than the port.
Practical
Position derived about 200 m west of the OSM-mapped Rendezvous Bay Beach (16.8101, -62.2054); sound in. Noforeignland reviewers report sand with good holding, can be rolly, swell in some reviews; Noonsite (2026) says it is 5 minutes north of Little Bay by dinghy and often less rolly. No facilities ashore. Reef along the cliffs: anchor in sand, never on coral (chart 254 reefs are no-anchor). Confirm with Customs that you may anchor here after clearing (see Coastal Cruising Authorisation). Exposed to northerly swell.
Best for
Quieter overnight alternative to Little Bay with snorkelling off the stern
