Latest Anchorages
Great holding in 5-8m on sand and light seagrass. A bit rolly, particularly further out in the bay.
Mixed coral and sand bottom. 10-15m. Nice beach on this side of the island.
Tuck in behind the reef in 9m on sand for best protection from the sea.
Anchor in 15m or so in sand. We experienced light roll coming from two directions so little point setting the stern anchor.
There is plenty of room on sandy bottom on the northeast side of Lelepa Island.
