Carlisle Bay was Bridgetown's harbour from the 1620s and the anchorage where sugar and enslaved people were landed; the seabed accumulated wrecks accordingly. Barbados lies 100 miles east of the island chain, which is why it was the first landfall for ships crossing from Africa and Europe. Anchorage: Anchor north of the Bandstand near the Boat Yard in 5-10m over sand, after clearance. Port St Charles on the north-west coast is the alternative entry, with 4-5m in the channel and 3-4m inside. Hazards: Do not anchor in Carlisle Bay before clearing in. Barbados sits alone to windward of the arc, so the passage there is a beat and the anchorage is swell-prone. More
