Approach and anchoring

Sand and weed bottom with seagrass. Sheltered from NW through N and E to SE, open to the south-west. The bay lies inside the Canal Luis Peña Natural Reserve, designated in 1999: all fishing is prohibited, anchoring is allowed on sand only and the DRNA mooring buoys are there to spare the coral.

Practical

Two mooring buoys, and anchoring permitted on sand only, off the seagrass. Beach ashore.
