Your favorite anchorage?
Posted by Zeke on January 21, 2025 at 11:31 amWhere do you drop the anchor to get away from it all? St. Barts or the BVI? Italy or Croatia?

One of the reasons that I think Annapolis is one of the VERY best sailing towns in the world is because there are 50 anchorages within 3 hours from Annapolis harbor. But… my favorite anchorage… is the next one.

I like Kristin’s reply – the next one. If I had to pick a favorite it might be off the coast of Capri.
But Kristin, one of my really special places is St Michael’s!

Hadley Harbor is one of my favorites. Tucked into Naushon Island – one of the Elizabeth Islands that separate Buzzards Bay from Woods Hole and Vineyard Sound – Hadley’s is well protected and picturesque. There are privately maintained moorings you can pick up (for free) if you are an early arriver. This is a very popular spot at a major cross-roads of southern New England cruising.

Here in Florida, it’s definitely Pelican Bay– there’s just something special about it, especially with all the fun memories… including that one time I ran aground! 😅 It’s a popular spot in Charlotte Harbor on the Gulf side, and I always love coming back. But if we’re talking favorites, nothing beats Cabrera Island off the coast of Mallorca. The night sky there is pure magic – no light pollution, just endless stars.

Isle deSsintes Gudaloupe. Tropical waters with a French bakery and crepes just steps from the dinghy dock.

With so many anchorages under my keel it is hard to choose one…..but way up there on the favorite’s list is a beautiful anchorage on the Greek Island of Paxos not far from Corfu. A stunning little anchorage there called Mongonisi is a place you must drop your hook someday.
The ASA flotilla in Corfu this September will be nearby there, and we might be able to visit it so you can see why.
Fair Winds to all!
