TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums US VI and Puerto Rico Article about Coral Bay, St. John

I like Coral Harbor, but I can only say that visiting Coral Harbor by boat has gotten quite difficult. The author correctly states that there are a handful of sailing families living aboard. Unfortunately there are a far greater number of derelict abandoned boats sitting on home made moorings all over Coral Harbor. Forget trying to anchor anywhere that is protected. The last few times we have anchored out toward the mouth or down near Sanders....limited protection to say the least. I am not in favor of a mega yacht marina (that would change the character of the place)but perhaps a 10 year limit on staying on a mooring?
