Coming from the north or south?
From the north aim for the west side of Mayreau. Pass Baline reef then aim for Petit Rameau. You will see a bunch os masts.
Coming from the south pass Mayreau on the lee side then aim for Petit Bateau.
I would recommend trying tu use the windward side unless you have been there before.
You can enter anchorage from the north side of petit Rameau or using the pass between Petit Rameau et petit bateau.
Then aim for the Baradal mooring field.
If you do not wish to take a mooring ball anchor just south of the mooring field.
If you have anything more than a 6 feet draft do not try too anchor on the sandbank.
Anchor in about 15 feet of water.
If you swim in the anchorage do watch for dingies coming and going.
If you dinghie please watch for swimmers.
