A Guarda - Docking

Avoid anchoring in the between the fishing boats and the southern wall as it is used as a fairway for small fishing vessels. Depth in any swell here would have to be watched and although this harbour offers good shelter, swelling may block the exit so only enter in calm conditions.
Minimum depth 2m.

We anchored between the fishing boats and the southern wall. A passing fisherman made signs that this was not a good place and pointed to the northeast corner. We anchored and held well. It would appear that the original place is in the fairway used by smaller fishing vessels. In the northeast corner, we were in no one’s way
