Lobos Key is an island in the Spanish Virgin Islands chain off the northeast coast of Puerto Rico. The island is located 7 miles to the northeast of the shoreside town of Fajardo.

Though the island is private and entry is not permitted, there is a pleasant cove for anchoring on the west side of the island. Nearby are Icacos Key and La Blanquilla. Icacos Key has anchorage available, while La Blanquilla does not.

The anchorage in Lobos Key is located on the west side of the island. A well-protected and beautiful little cove, the anchorage has 7- to 9-foot depths, and isolated just west of a small concrete pier. Anchorage conditions are generally mild, but a south breeze can make the anchorage untenable.
