Spanish Wells - Docking
The harbour is formed by a long channel bounded by two small islands and is well sheltered, although open to winds funnelling from the east.
At the eastern end, there are 6 mooring buoys controlled by “Bandit”. There are a well-kept marina and a hurricane hole at the western end where boats are secured to the mangrove trees.
Royal Island Harbour
Lying to the west of Spanish Wells (25° 30.9’N, 076° 50.5’W) this anchorage provides good shelter for deep draft boats. There are no facilities or services here.

CW Gocery and Laundry not existing any more (Staff at SW Marine&Hardware confirmed). We didn’t find a Laundry, Marina Laundry is only for berth holders.
WiFi at SW Yacht Haven was very slow but free. The signal can be received at the South Anchorage with a good antenna. Very fast & free WiFi at the Spanish Wells Food Fair Store.

Spanish Wells Yacht Haven – DO NOT BUY WATER
Just wanted to make sure you don’t make the same mistake that we did and the 2 other boats travelling with us. We purchased 131 gallons of water at $.20/gallon and it was the WORST salty water we purchased during our 2 month trip to the Abacos & Eleuthera.
It was so bad that we had to dump all of it. Could barely take a shower with it and even when it was put through our water purifier it was still awful. We are now disputing the charge with our credit card company. BEWARE – DO NOT BUY!
