PORT BLAIR, CHATHAM ISLAND

403 miles from Patong Bay, Phuket

PORT BLAIR. 11° 41.162N, 92° 43.376E

Use of this anchorage has been largely discontinued due to increased ship traffic in the area. If you have a very small dinghy then ask Port Control if you can anchor here for check-in and check-out.

Anchorage B is now the preferred anchorage for yachts. Anchor in 4-6 metres with good holding in thick black mud. Only suitable as a day anchorage.
