Private island. Beach access only. Probably vulnerable to a north swell. Haven't snorkled that area but geologically it should be pretty good for coral formations.

Years back I noticed a boat anchored there and being the nosey type - always looking for the next secret spot I headed over to take a look. Once I got within earshot I got a earful from the gal on the boat that there was only room for one boat and no where else to anchor in the area. There seemed to be a small sandy spot she was anchored in. So not to be deterred, and the sun was high, I scoped out the area for other sandy spots all the way back to Iguana Head. Pretty much all coral or rock. With the winds from the East and no swell it was a pretty nice spot but it's never worked out that I went back again. Now that there are moorings it might be nice when conditions are right but I'm not so sure what percentage of the time they would be as it's fairly exposed.
Life involves risks, take some prudent ones (NOT with the BVI ferries)!
