Looking at a North Swell the next couple of days...how is Diamond Cay in north swell? I assume Great Harbor or Little Harbor is good as well?

What other anchorages would be good?

It’s fine in a North swell. The. Ugly pool will also be fun!

I've weathered some big north swells in Diamond Cay and it was always quite settled, tucked between Foxy's Taboo and the B-Line bar. The holding isn't great, but there are lots of mooring balls.
Here's an image of the waves on the north side of Diamond Cay while I was anchored in calm waters just a few yards away to the south:

The only other truly calm anchorage during a big north swell that I've found in the BVI was the North Sound on Virgin Gorda.
