This is a Port of Entry and is a useful one if coming from Panama, being towards the north of Colombia's pacific coast.The bay is well protected but is open to the north.
There is an anchorage not far past the small military outpost and
near the little bar where the ferry pier is located. Anchor in about 60’
in uneven mud, but beware of rapid shoalling towards the shore.
The best dinghy landing is at the pier on the west side of the bay
where there is a bar with an outdoor shower and some provisions..
