If conditions are suitable you may anchor in this small bay to the west of a coral reef off the public beach. There is twenty feet of water with sand over coral; the town is to the southeast.

Sosua is a pretty tourist town and boasts its own Synagogue, established by Jewish refugees during World War 11.

Do not anchor here in NE winds or East winds with a NE sea running.

If you do venture to stop at Sosua remember that it national park territory. Look for the officials who will probably come to you by dinghy upon your arrival. They will show you a buoy to tie to since anchoring is prohibited. Do not attempt to anchor and always keep a watchful eye on the weather. The locals do so and their knowledge and warning must be taken seriously.
