Marina Review for Spanish Wells Yacht Haven

Rating: 5

Very neat clean marina with helpful staff. I tasted the water and it was fine so I filled my water tank. Nice open air bar and restaurant. Easy walk to a really nice beach. There is a huge sandbar even at high tide. Nice little lagoon before the sandbar. Great place for our dog to run. A large grocery store, almost like a US store is a short walk so great for provisioning. On the road to the beach is a little booth where a woman sells soft serve ice cream from 7-10 pm every night. Flavors change every day. Walk a bit further on the main road to marina is on but west to Bernard's. A longish walk but worth it. He sells fresh caught lobster after 4pm. Not sure how often. A crowd is usually gathered waiting. We loved the small town feel and the colorful homes. Also RB boatyard is there for any needed repairs. We will definitely be back.

Anchorage Review for Rodriguez Key

Just anchored for the night as a stopover to cross to Bimini. Winds were north in January so anchored on south side. Watch depth as you approach. Mostly 8 to 12 ft. Anchor dragged a little. Look for sand if possible. Doesn't look like Island is very accessible.
