Seems like mooring or anchoring off Prickly Pear near the Sandbox is a pretty safe proposition.

I believe there are 133 moorings in North Sound (between Leverick Bay, Prickly Pear, Saba Rock & BEYC) ... this Anchorage Chart lists the locations of overnight moorings ... # of balls at each location is expressed parenthetically in the list lower on the page. Also, there are 12 moorings in Trellis Bay managed by The Island Last Resort that can be reserved ahead of time with a credit card ... the deposit is then applied to your dinner tab ... check here Have a great trip! - Mark

Toofarfromthesea said: What do you think of the fields at Leverick or Bitter End? I prefer Leverick because of their TTOL special! Plus, I like Nick and Monica! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> However, there are lots of moorings at both places.

That is a nice chart and listing. But I wonder about its accuracy (up to date?) It says there are 10 balls at Anegada Setting point. I was up there a week ago and I quickly counted aprox 40+ balls.

warren460 said: I have seen the bight at Norman island and anegada full,( i.e. No moorings available) on many occasions.
If you plan to arrive late, have a plan B and plenty of daylight. Are there days when certain spots are more/less busy? rigirly

The less busy days are "change days". We went to Anegada on a Friday and the mooring field had maybe 10 boats total. Same for Saturday. The rest of the week everything is taken very early in the day. The Bitter End, Saba Rock and Leverick are dead during the same time frame (Tapers off on Thursday and dead on Friday and Saturday) because the new charter groups haven't arrived from Road Town that soon Anchorages close to Road Town and West End are normally always very crowded and busy nearly all days of the week.
