Docking

Careful navigation is required to reach the settlement of Bullocks Harbour on Great Harbour Cay, which offers little more than clearance facilities.

Entrance to the marina is approached by following a course of 180 degrees for 2 3/4 miles from the western end of Little Stirrup Cay to a double piled marker. The 5 mile channel is well-marked to the entrance of the cut. Through the cut one enters the outer harbour where the fuel dock is located; then follow the markers to the inside of the marina. Channel depth is around 9 feet at mean low tide.
