Ensenada Malena Day Anchorage
18° 17.0′ N · 65° 17.1′ W · approximate
A small cove just inside Punta Soldado, south of Ensenada Honda's entrance: a pleasant lunch-and-snorkel stop when exploring the south coast.
Practical
Position is the OpenStreetMap 'Ensenada Malena' label (node 368381522), checked to be in water. The Virgintino guide (about 2015): beyond the tip of the island south of Bahía de Sardinas, Ensenada Malena makes a nice day anchorage for exploring; you cannot go north into Ensenada Dakity from here except by dinghy. Day use only: move into Ensenada Honda for the night.
