Bear Drop Harbour Anchorage

















On our way to our next stop in Bear Drop Harbour we had to go through Little Detroit Passage (top photo). We had to call a Securite to let other boats know we were passing through. There is only room for one boat at a time. On the left hand side of the picture you can see the two range markers that you must line up to get the correct approach and not hit any of the rocks on either side.
46 09.659N

The water temperature is 71.4 degrees F.


While we were traveling to our next destination we heard a call over VHF for any loopers and we thought someone needed help so we answered. It was Odyssey who had finished the loop last year, just wondering if anyone needed help. We talked to him and discussed the weather and he recommended that we go to Bear Drop Harbour (not sure how it got its name). We weathered the storm very well in this quiet protected anchorage.
