There are no moorings or places to anchor around Johnson’s reef. Approaching is possible with good weather when the water is calm. Some of the buoys on the N and S sides are lit. In the past, many boats have been stuck here. Snorkelling is not common in the area and interested visitors should be wary of frequent traffic from other vessels.

Provisioning

This mooring spot is not ideal for provisioning.

General Information

While sailing past the north coast of St John you will get the chance to see Johnsons Reef from a distance.
