Introduction:
The Abacos area of the Bahamas, often called the Abacos Out Islands, is part of a chain of islands that are located in the northernmost portion of the Bahamas chain. Allans-Pensacola Cay (once two islands, now joined as one) is 130 miles north of Nassau, 130 miles northeast of North Bimini, and 70 miles east of the airport on Grand Bahamas Island.
Allans-Pensacola Cay is located just north of Little Abaco Island, and has an anchorage on its west end that is very popular with cruisers, as it is well protected. The anchorage is located on the west end of the island and has 7- to 8-foot depths and a sandy bottom.
Navigating the Water:
The anchorage on Allans-Pensacola Cay is approached from the southwest, and the primary hazard on entry is the Allans Cay Rocks that jut out to the northwest from the Penasacola Cay side. Once you have avoided Allans Cay Rocks, you can head right into the anchorage and drop the hook wherever you can find room and good depths. The best depths are along the north shore of the cove on its northwest side.
