Report Review
There were many available mooring balls, and at $25 USD/night that’s understandable. I dived on our ball to verify it was in good condition, and it was in excellent condition and strongly built. Coast guard is used to chase anchoring vessels from anchorages, stating clearly that anchoring is not permitted, irrespective of anchorages marked on up-to-date navigation charts. Clearly the Grenada government is supporting the business of mooring balls. The nearest “anchorage” is Granada Mal, and that shouldn’t be an anchorage. Expect to damage your chain or get your anchor stuck in rocks. Grand Mal should be the protected zone, as it’s full of coral now being damaged, and outside St Georges should continue to be an anchorage, where there’s no life on the seabed (not great holding, but good enough with proper scope), and that large commercial vessels are not chased away by coast guard. Only private vessels are. 🤦🏻♂️
Enjoy Grenada! 😆
