TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums British Virgin Islands Long Bay, Virgin Gorda

I have to admit that I mentioned Long Bay on Tortola in my post.

I've anchored at Long Bay off Virgin Gorda several times, but think that would get some swell as well, as @YachtReprise stated. And the anchorage is relatively shallow there; I only had a couple of feet below the keel and surely would have bottomed out in any significant swell.

I flee to the North Sound at any sign of a north swell, although tucking in at Long Bay (Diamon Day) at Little Jost is also a protected location in those conditions.
