Local Weather

The bay is protected from the dominant trades. The odd southeasterly winds can sweep right into the harbour, creating an uncomfortable swell.

Approach and Navigation

There are extensive shoals towards the Southern side of the entrance, which extend some ways towards the outlying Isla de Lobos. To enter the harbour coming from the south, keep close to Isla de Lobos and the main harbour jetty to starboard. When coming from the north, head straight for the jetty.
