General

The appropriately named Snug Harbour lies about 1 M W of Cooper Island and provides a landlocked harbour.

Approach

The approach is straightforward.

Anchorage

The harbour is quite deep, but we anchored off the stream, at the head of the S arm, in 5 fms.

Also at the S end, is a disused fish-packing plant and wharf, which is a useful place to land when going ashore.

Most of the cabins here are being used in the summer.
