Dumbell Island

Charterer's Centre
Type Daytime Anchorage
Description Dumbell Island is a good place to stop for a snorkel while in transit to or from Whitehaven Beach North. Offering protection in South-East winds to moderate strengths, the Dumbell shape extend East and West. The anchorage to the North has two public use moorings. These are often busy, and anchoring is otherwise near impossible.

As a bonus however, the island is part of the fully protected area around Border Island, so the marine life is increasingly plentiful.

The island is unsuitable for overnight anchoring.
Restrictions Fully protected Marine Green Zone
Shelter in South East, South, South West winds to moderate strengths
Moorings 2 public moorings available for up to 2 hours
Fishing Fishing is prohibited
Be careful of Fringing coral and trying to anchor. The two moorings are the only suitable means of stopping
Snorkel The fully protected coral here is in good condition with plentiful marine life
Sailing The island makes a good stop over on long transits to and from Whitehaven Beach
Dive The protected reef and marine life make for excellent diving.
