• Description: Ensenada de los Barcos is a large shallow bay and a favorite place for local fishermen to stop and rest. The holding is good and the entry is straightforward, making it a perfect anchorage for tired sailors who have just completed an overnight passage from Cabo de San Antonio. If you want to land with a pet favor the NW corner of the bay, as the E side is thick mangrove. See Waterway Guide Cuba for details on navigation and approaches.

  DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
