Islands
This section does not apply for most ports, if that is the case for this one remove it. You may, however, list ismall islands near this port.
Unlike sailing in the deep waters of the Virgin Islands the approach to Jolly Harbour is over shoals. Your boats draft and personnel comfort level will dictate your route. The conservative approach is to first sail to a point north and west of Irish Bank. Then proceed along the south edge of Five Islands until east of Irish Bank. Finally just head toward the channel. This route should keep you in 20 feet of water until the channel is reached.

The check-in facilities in Jolly Harbour are one of the easier to locate and use in the Caribbean. The building is located along east edge of the harbour.
