San Juan - Docking

Apr 25, 2024

Anchorages in San Juan Bay

There is a designated anchorage, just West of the San Juan Bay Marina, in the San Antonio channel. However, large cruise ships dock on the South side of this channel and encroach into this area so there is not much room. In addition, there are also a number of resident boats on moorings. Holding in soft mud at 10 metres is only fair.

Dinghies can be left at the marina for a small daily fee.

Security:

Dinghy and outboard motors are popular targets for thieves throughout the Caribbean.  Noonsite and the Caribbean Safety and Security Net (CSSN) continue to receive regular reports from vessels that have had their dinghy/outboard stolen.  It is advisable to lift and lock your dinghy and outboard at all times.  See the CSSN website for information on the latest security incidents.

Buses run frequently to town from the nearby bus stop. Buses also run to Plaza Las Americas, a huge shopping complex. There is a good small supermarket within walking distance of the marina.
