Overview
Baie De Pam is a very sheltered anchorage in a deep bay. The surrounding area is mostly uninhabited and there are no facilities in the area. The bay is the most sheltered anchorage in the NE of Grande Terre until Hienghene is reached.
Cruising the region
Baie de Pam is primarily a overnight anchorage when traveling to or from the Northern lagoon. The coast to the south is spectacular, though there is a limited number of anchorages. To the north, there is a maze of reefs and islands that continue on into the Northern lagoon area. There are a variety of anchorages amongst the northern reefs and islands, but none as sheltered as Pam.
