Bahía San Juanico (Pacific) Anchorage

26° 14.4′ N · 112° 26.4′ W · approximate

A small, tranquil bay in the lee of Punta Pequeña, 85 nm north of Mag Bay's Cabo San Lázaro - the first of the reliable rest stops for northbound boats leaving Mag Bay.

Practical

Coordinate is the OpenStreetMap 'Bahía San Juanico' bay polygon centroid (approximate); anchor in the lee of Punta Pequeña (OSM point 26.232 N 112.497 W). The Log: almost always a tranquil anchorage, good for an overnight, pumping down deck fuel or a daytime nap before bashing north in the calmer night hours. Often bypassed by powerboats heading straight for Turtle Bay's fuel. Do not confuse with Caleta San Juanico in the Sea of Cortez.
