Anchorages
Sadly, Andraitx has little left for safe anchorages. Previously anchoring was possible in the entrance outside of the channel and inner harbour. However, the development of floating quays on the west side of the entrance resulted in locals setting mooring buoys on the east side of the entrance, effectively eliminating any safe anchorage except far out near the entrance. Winter storms in 2008/09 destroyed the floating quays, leaving an area too fouled to anchor safely but with no warnings of this hazard. The inner basin is home to a large fleet of fishing boats. Due to these fishing boats, very little anchoring, if any, is permitted in the basin except in the case of emergency.
