Mata Utu - Docking
Anchorages:
Gahi Bay is now the only authorized anchorage area. Officials recommend dealing with entry formalities at Mata’Utu quayside before finding an anchorage/mooring spot. Anchoring here can be very uncomfortable.
Note: There are some shallow coral areas (depth of three meters) on the north side of the big yellow mooring buoy off the wharf, but there is plenty of room for anchoring safely in 11 meters depth.
SY Whistler who visited in July 2019 anchored at Position: 13 17.17S, 176 10.01W and reported that it was OK with port officials to anchor there. This is just off the main wharf at Mata Utu.
Dinghy Docks:
There is a dinghy landing and steps on the inside of the south side of the wharf at Mata Utu.
Security: No security issues have been reported to Noonsite.
