Majuro - Docking

Moorings:

There are two mooring fields in Majuro: RRE (north field) and Matt Holly (south field). RRE is closed and not accepting new yachts until field maintenance is performed. There is no scheduled start date for this maintenance. This leaves Matt Holly’s moorings in the south and Carry Everest’s moorings next door.

It is advisable to dive down and inspect your mooring and pull back with the engine as 3 to 4’ swells are common during wind reversals.

Currently garbage fees are $4/month (not decreasing) and $4/gallon oil disposal, paid to RRE.


Use of Shoreline’s dock is a courtesy provided to yachts that fuel up at their pumps. Local long boats have priority space with yacht tenders expected to dock at the ends. If yacht tenders are blocking the local long boats from docking, they will be moved and re-tied with questionable knots!

Anchorages:

Anchoring between the south mooring field and Delap Park is the official area for yachts to anchor. This field is peppered with coral and a few bombies that are extremely shallow. Please do not anchor so your chain drags over these. The field has some good sand, but a lot of rock and poor holding.

Anchoring outside this field requires approval from Majuro local government and local land owners (their property goes 6 miles into the lagoon from shore). Mieco Beach Yacht Club Moorings do not require this approval (see below).

Note that during SW and W winds, more rubbish appears in the anchorage than normal and sometimes oil spills from ships anchored in the lagoon.

Enemanet and Eneko Islands

The Mieco Beach Yacht Club began working on a mooring project for Enemanet and Eneko Islands in Majuro in 2006. Today the moorings are still well-maintained and used by yacht club members, thereby saving the precious reefs from anchor damage.

All the moorings are free for yacht club members on a first-come, first-served basis, with no time limit imposed. Non-members pay $5 a day (NOTE: This is to continue to raise money to maintain the moorings).

Yachts that tie up to these moorings are welcome to do so at their own risk. It is recommended that the moored yacht inspect the mooring for damage.

    Jan 2018 The NTA has rolled out a very good 4G wifi system with expanding coverage, currently, all of Majuro and Ebeye are fully covered. The 4G is easily accessible anywhere in the lagoon and nearshore including the two designated mooring areas. No wifi yet outside Majuro or Kwajalein atolls.
