Shitten Bay Anchorage
17° 13.4′ N · 62° 39.7′ W
A remote bay on the southwest face of the Southeast Peninsula with no road access - a spot to escape the crowd if you can find a sand patch.
Practical
No land access; dinghy north to White House Bay to get ashore (ActiveCaptain). The moorings belong to local tour operators - do not use them. A Feb 2025 visitor took 45 minutes to find a sand patch and found it a bit rolly, though better than Statia or Saba. No hazards reported on the approach.
Best for
Solitude when White House Bay is full
