How to get there
Prickly Bay offers a well-protected anchorage, sheltered from prevailing winds and rough seas. Boaters should use the marina's coordinates and navigation aids to enter the bay safely; no specific bearing or channel is detailed in available sources.
Contact the marina on VHF for docking instructions and berth assignment upon arrival. The approach is straightforward in daylight, but caution is advised during heavy weather despite the bay's shelter.
