Guide

Approach and anchoring

Sheltered from the trade winds, north-east to south-east, open to the west and south. Pilotage around Terre-de-Bas calls for more care than the Terre-de-Haut anchorages, and is not advised on a first visit to the archipelago.

Practical

Sand bottom, beach and pontoon ashore. For clearance and provisioning, cross to Terre-de-Haut.
