Northerly swells started coming into the anchorage at Pinney’s Beach.  When this happens, the port (left) side of the boat sounds like water is banging up against the hull.  So, on 1/28/23 we decided to leave our mooring ball and cruise by some of the anchorages.  We looked at the one other Nevis anchorage recommended in the Doyle guide called “Oualie Beach.”  It was a smaller area that was supposed to have calmer waters in northerly swells.  Unfortunately, it was extremely crowded with small, local boats.  We didn’t think we could “tuck in” our boat close enough to shore to be protected.  So, we crossed over to St. Kitts, which was approximately a 15-minute motor from Nevis.  We passed a couple of different bays on the southeastern side of St. Kitts.  There was only one boat there and it didn’t appear that there were any accessible amenities.  So, we continued around the southern tip of the island and decided to anchor outside of the marina called St. Christophe.  There are two other boats in the bay, both American flagged.  Like outside of Charlestown, the water is dark and we can’t see the bottom.  I’m guessing that there is grass below us.
