About this Anchorage

Bahia Santispac forms part of the first bay you'll get to as you enter Bahia Conception proper. Ashore there is a restaurant, some hiking trails, and lots of good snorkeling is to be had nearby. The anchorage is well protected from most weather systems, but if the wind is from the south you are better moving to one of the other bays.

This is a nice place to base yourself to explore parts of Bahia Conception, you can go by kayak around to the other bays nearby as well as to visit the nearby islands.

The restaurant ashore has wifi for a fee, and you can pick this up from the boat.

Anchoring Notes

Anchor in 20ft over sand off the beach. We prefer the east side as it's a bit further away from the main road.
