Overview
Mayreau has one of the most attractive anchorages in the island chain at Salt Whistle Bay.
Hurricane Beryl caused some extensive erosion to the beach at Salt Whistle Bay but local kiteboarders also report that the storm has also heaped up lots of fine white sand in the shallows which is now washing up ashore and rebuilding a picture perfect white sand beach.
With fairly limited space and the usual proliferation of smaller yachts, larger yachts will often have to anchor at the back of the bay, but it still makes for a wonderful overnight stop that guests always enjoy.
A functional alternative is to anchor in Saline Bay and explore Mayreau by tender or by taking a short walk or taxi ride along its one and only main road. This really is a great kiteboarding location.
