Approach: Difficult

Shelter: Medium - Alternative: Clarke's Court Bay or Prickly Bay 1 to 4 M.

Night approach: No - Overnight: Yes in calm weather

Draft: No issue

Beware: Lots of reefs

Waypoints: Approach: 11° 59, 33' N - 061° 42, 85' W - Stop: 11° 59, 92' N - 061° 43, 23' W

Anchorage: Good holding on mud

The approach should only be attempted before noon by good light and a knowledge of pilotage in coral reefs is advisable.

We don't believe this anchorage would be tenable with a strong eastern swell or strong wind.

Steer to the waypoint and then 340° magnetic towards a house with a green roof. The depth at the waypoint is approximately 20 m. and rapidly rising to 15 m. Watch the current to west.

Rocks offlying Calvigny Island are easily spotted and the sea often breaks on them. To starbord there are no breakers, only the colour of the water warns of shoals.

Spot the shoals to the west of Adam Island, once you have passed them, steer to starbord to anchor at the waypoint "stop" just in front of a small coral barrier between Adam Island and Grenada.

The anchorage is 12 meters deep on soft mud. Holding is good.

Beware, even in your tender of the passages between Calvigny Island or Adam Island and Grenada.

Going ashore: None
