Pine Cay - North Caicos
- Location: Caicos
- Lat / Lon: N 21° 53.440' / W 072° 06.016'
- Depth: 6-10 Feet
- Description: Anchoring off the beach of Pine Cay is possible only in settled weather. There is slight protection from east and south winds, but there is also surge from the ocean and shoal-draft only vessels can anchor here relatively safely. The area is classed as a Nature Park, so park rules apply here. The whole area is protected by a reef and should only be entered when visibility permits but can be accessed by entering Fort George Cut. There are restaurants, supermarkets and a few gift shops.
DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
