Had an anchor issue and picked up a mooring while we resolved it. Easy pickup. Mooring in good condition.

These are a great location perfect for northernly fronts or easterly winds. Most of the old timers anchor out but this is the best option to tie up and be worry free.

Great location near the beach

Great stay on a quality mooring

Moorings are in great shape. Reasonably priced and well marked. A bit rolly with winds out of the S/SE

Great Mooring Balls at a reasonable price!
by John P. - Verified user on Mar 31, 2025
Well-maintained mooring balls at a reasonable price; little wake. We backed on the ball (good advice for the Bahamas) and it also held well including through a 30 knot storm during our stay. Many great beaches and good provisioning at George Town about a mile away. Wonderful cruiser's community (VHF net on 72 every morning at 8) with many activities and mutual support.

Mooring is great, looks really new. The in person mooring contact wasn’t great. A boat was on our reserved mooring when we arrived at 230p. So we picked up one directly behind. It took at least 5 hours for someone to decide if we could just stay on the one we picked up? Stressing us out - not knowing if another boat would show up to the one we were on? Anyway, the boat on our reserved mooring finally left at like 7p. So we moved to it. Then we get a message from mooring base, it’s fine if we stay on mooring we picked up! We had already moved.

It’s so much quieter down by Sand Dollar as compared to in front of Chat n Chill! No speeding water taxis and dinghies making wakes! I’m glad I asked for the beach area! Thank you!

We absolutely love, sand Dollar beach. The mornings are fantastic. The customer service is truly outstanding. They can fact you really quickly, and even though you can’t see it you just know it’s with a smile.

Location of the Mooring Ball was Alsum

Excellent communication with the team, well maintained mooring balls, we plan on using this mooring field in the future stays.

Enjoyed our time in George Town, on a mooring just off the beach of Chat N Chill. Mooring was substantial and in good condition- I dove it. While there is still lots of room to anchor in Elizabeth Harbour, we did enjoy the prime spot the mooring occupied and peace of mind on a day when it really blew.

We stayed on ball 25 for couple months Jan-Feb-Mar and appreciated the monthly rate as well as the quality of the mooring equipment. They were very responsive via the Dockwa messaging.

A wonderful location. Very convenient to Georgetown and Stocking Island. Only downside is dingies and local taxi drive too fast through the mooring field.

The “ring” on the ball #.9 is broken.
Need to be fixed.

Morning balls are well marked and very easy to pick up.

We reserved through Dockwa and requested a certain mooring field. We had a quick response from the reservation team and got a mooring in the requested field. We extended twice and again the reservation team responded in minutes.
Great service, solid moorings spaced adequately. Direction on tying to moorings was very clear.
The only negative were boaters anchoring to close to the mooring field. It appeared the staff did try to police this and had boats move further away.
I would definitely stay again.
And we did.
Same great experience. The reservation team was very responsive. In 35 knots winds an anchored boat did drag too close to me, but he pulled anchor and moved.

excellent stay. great to be near sand dollar beach.
by Alicia B. - Verified user on Feb 23, 2025
A bit bumpy or rolly but otherwise next to sandy beach which is good for dog.

Nice, sturdy balls. Spaced well. Asked for a ball near the chatnchill. Took long time for reply. The ball they assigned was the #1 furthest ball from the regatta area as possible. It also was the 2nd furthest ball from G town, so it was really long dinghy rides to anywhere. If you can't get on a low number ball (1 thru 27), then I recommend just anchoring. We felt secure in the wind, and had plenty of room between us and the other moored boats (we were moor concerned about one of the anchored boats that was, at times, 40 feet away).

Easy Peasy. The map was very useful.

Great spot for quick easy beach access and protection from bigger winds.
by John K. - Verified user on Feb 15, 2025
Water Taxi's pass quickly and close to vessels at just the right speed for maximum wake. Anchored vessels will encroach the field which results in close quarters under poor conditions.
Comments above I believe are due to proximity to the channel into the marina and beach area thus other areas of the mooring field would not be as bad.
The mooring balls are easy to manage and secure, but still relatively new. I felt secure on a 50', 36 ton trawler, but not worth the premium price.
About Elizabeth Harbour Moorings
Welcome to Elizabeth Harbour! The Elizabeth Harbour Conservation Partnership (EHCP) is a registered Bahamian non-profit organization governed by a Board of Directors. The mission of the EHCP is to guide the ecologically sustainable development of the coastal zone and waters of Elizabeth Harbour with the aim of enhancing tourism, fisheries, and recreational use through stakeholder education and participation and collaborative management of harbour facilities for the benefit of present and future generations.
The EHCP manages two new mooring fields off of the east end of Stocking Island. Both mooring fields are in protected waters in the lee of Stocking Island in deep water, and are approximately a 10-15 minute dinghy or water taxi ride to George Town.
If you’re looking to be in the middle of the action, the Gaviota Bay East (GBE) mooring field is the place to be. Located adjacent to several beach bars and restaurants, you will only be a short dinghy ride to fun! The GBE mooring field has 21 moorings that can accommodate up to 60 ft / 18 m vessels.
If you’re looking for a quieter setting close to nature trails and snorkeling, the Sand Dollar Beach (SDB) mooring field offers beautiful scenery adjacent to Moriah Harbour Cay National Park, but is still within a 5 minute dinghy ride to beachside food and drink. The SDB mooring field has 43 moorings that can accommodate up to 60 ft / 18 m vessels.
Moorings are by reservation only, and can be reserved for daily, weekly, and monthly stays online. We will do our best to accommodate special requests. Currently, there are no first-come, first serve moorings available. Mooring fees must be paid in full once the reservation is confirmed. Check out before 12pm. Check in after 2pm. Reservation requests will be confirmed on the same day if made by 1pm. No wet storage available.
Please refer to our website for mooring field guidelines and tie-up instructions, and additional information. Terms and conditions apply.
