After a 12 hour sail, we decided to anchor in Rodney Bay, outside of the marina. We planned to enter the marina the next morning when we were not so tired. That enabled us to leisurely prepare the boat to dock. (We need to prepare the ropes and put out the fenders before tying up to a dock.)

We have anchored in Rodney Bay before. Our favorite place to anchor is near the Sandals Resort. It is a relatively safe anchorage and we are usually lucky enough to hear steel drum music throughout the day.
