Forteau Bay, entered between Pointe Amour and Forteau Point, about 4.5 miles SW, extends about 2.8 miles NW to a shallow and drying inlet at its head. The inlet at the head of the bay lies between English Point, to the N, and Buckle Point, about 0.5 mile W. The E side of Forteau Bay is indented by the open bight Anse aux Morts. The holding ground in Forteau is good, but S winds cause a heavy swell. Forteau Light is shown 0.2 mile S of Admiral Point.
