I like them both...but if you've already done DC once, do Little Harbor. Very quiet, well except for the goats on the hillside. Or, go to DC early..swim, hangout, b-line etc...then head to LH in the PM and have drinks and dinner.

I consider Little Harbor to be secluded and quiet, although disappointed that the 'clean-up' from the hurricane seems to be making slow progress. Although the ambience may be lacking, the personalities of Ms. Cynthia and Ms. Strawberry have always been exceptional.

For 20 plus years our routine is GH or LH. Spend the day in White Bay then if GH is full there is always room in LH. Abe in LH will take you wherever you want to go and pick you up at a predetermined time.

Looking at the restaurants available....how do you decide? They all look wonderful! I'm sort of partial to Abe's. To see them in July 2018 piece together temporary facilities for their restaurant that was destroyed by Irma, then put out a wonderful lobster feast where my family of 4 were the only ones there was amazing. Their attitude after the destruction they had witnessed 10 months earlier was just amazing. I like Little Harbour because as others said, it does remind me of the BVI when i first went there in the early 80s.

Can Little Harbor accommodate a 45 foot cat on their moorings? I read on my navionics app that boats needed to be < 40 feet. Disregard this. The comment was for the mooring ball in the northeast corner of the harbor that has 39’ swing room.

They still do the self serve drinks. They have a different bar now. We had drinks there and bought some shirts etc, but it's honestly in kind of sad shape there...but they're working on it.

When were you there? In January, they had a newly built dock and I thought the restaurant was in decent shape.

Just returned yesterday. Can't say I noticed the dock...you may have a different definition of decent shape I suppose.

Can't say I noticed the dock...you may have a different definition of decent shape I suppose. the new dock is next to the dock that people normally med-moor on. in January it was still being finished and appeared pretty nice to me. the restaurant might be sad to some. seems pretty similar to the old version to me but it had been a while since I was there. must have been nice and shiny at some point that I missed.
