Anchorage Review for Compass Cay-Rachel's Bath
Reviewed by: Richard Allen D.O., Okie pOkie, on Feb 20, 2025
Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 48'
Draft: 6.0'Overall Rating:4Holding:5Wind Protection:3Current Flow:2Wake Protection:2Scenic Beauty:5Ease of Shopping:1Shore Access:5Pet Friendly:5We anchored here and enjoyed Rachel's bath at both low and high tide. I would recommend both going at both high and low tide. The winds came up and blew from NE shifting E then to SE blow 20knt. The anchorage became very rolly and uncomfortable. Holding was very good in sand just behind main channel which is mainly rock.
