Description:

Blue Lagoon is surrounded by palm trees and this area, with its lovely beach, provides a very pleasant anchorage. The marina and hotel were completely refurbished during 2014.

Entrance Notes or Cautions:

When arriving in St. Vincent, Blue Lagoon, there are two channels to choose from:

• The lit marked channel to Blue Lagoon Bay has a depth of 2.5-2.8m. The sea bed is soft sand. This is the only choice for a night entry. For those yachts affected by draft restrictions, or those not wishing to make an entrance during the hours of darkness, there are a number of moorings close by suitable for waiting before entering.
• A deeper channel (south or reef channel) does exist, however, this should only be used during daylight as it is very narrow. A local pilot is recommended and this can be arranged via the marina office at US$20 per passage per yacht. The passage through the reef is done at the owner’s risk and the marina accepts no responsibility for pilotage.

At night or in difficult conditions, there is plenty of room to anchor outside the marina and there are mooring buoys not far away. The maximum length here is 80 feet, and boats of that size will need pilot assistance.
