Visiting Yachtsmen
Cooper Island's Manchioneel Bay features on many sailing itineraries as we are a natural stop along the Sister Island chain leading to The Baths at Virgin Gorda. We are an easy reach from Tortola - ideal for your first night aboard or your last stop before returning your boat in the morning.
Moor-Seacure own and maintain 30 moorings in Manchioneel Bay which are suitable for vessels up to 60ft in length and 20 net tons. Anchoring in the sea grass is not permitted, as Manchioneel Bay is one of the Dept. of Environment & Fisheries' seven permanent Sea Grass monitoring sites. This habitat provides food and shelter for sea turtles and many species of fish, so grab your mask & snorkel and see what's under your boat!
