Description

On the south east coast of Molokai, this little harbour is worth the effort of negotiating the entrance through the reef.

Most of the inner harbour is a private facility, but the three areas in the outer harbour all offer safe anchorages.

There is a dinghy landing near the palm trees at the eastern end of the public beach. These trees also offer the best clue (together with two large houses on the hill behind) that you have found the harbour.

Depth is about 3 to 6m with the deepest water on the eastern side.

The first anchorage area is the largest and has a sandy bottom but is subject to some roll. The two anchorages further in are very calm and care must be taken to set the anchor in a patch of sand between the rocks.

No toilets or showers ashore.

There is a marina here but you can forget it. It is always super packed and all but impossible to get a “slip”. Just go past the marina and harbor entrance and find an open mooring buoy with LYC painted on it. In 2010, these buoys were white and there were 7 of them. Most of them ...

Kalaupapa bay (Molokai Hawai)

This anchorage is supposed to be vile and generally lived up to its reputation. It does, however, make a nice stop between Honolua Bay and Oahu, but the wind blew harder in the anchorage than out at sea.
