Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from Trinity Bay into the mouth of Double Bayou, keeping mid-channel as the entrance shoals at the bar. Four concrete ramps and a courtesy pontoon for trailer launches. Shallow water, draught above 1.2 m not advised. No marked aids at the bayou mouth, local knowledge useful.

Practical

Four full-size boat ramps with a large trailer car park, a courtesy dock, public toilets, a fish-cleaning station and a playground. A small store on Bayshore Road sells fuel, ice and bait. Fully sheltered marinas at Bolivar are 11 NM south-east across Trinity Bay.

Ashore
