    These islands are amazing! Very picturesque, and can offer reasonable protection if you're careful with planning for prevailing winds.

    We anchored just after (NE) of the morning fields - only one other boat there during the week.

    This is a beautiful spot for an overnight anchorage. Quiet & scenic. We anchored right in the center between High, Crib, Money, and Pot Islands The approach from the south along the west side of Outer Island has plenty of room and is easy to navigate. Good holding for the anchor on the first try. The only down side is that it's a little less protected from the swells than appearances might suggest.
