Green Cay Anchorage
18° 27.1′ N · 64° 42.6′ W · approximate
A pretty lunch and overnight anchorage in the lee of 108-ft Green Cay, between Little Jost Van Dyke and Sandy Spit, with snorkeling on the reef and a short dinghy ride to the beaches.
Practical
Position is approximate: west of Green Cay and north of Sandy Spit, about 170 m off (OpenStreetMap coastline). Noonsite (Jan 2024): there are moorings, but excellent holding inside them, with a very short dinghy ride to the dock; a good base for hiking and snorkeling. Coast Pilot 5: Green Cay is 108 ft high, close east of Little Jost Van Dyke. Anchor in sand only.
Best for
Lunch stop or settled-weather overnight by Sandy Spit
