Location

Blind Bay is entered between Black Point (44°30'N., 63°50'W.) and Leary Point, about 0.7 mile SW. The bay, although encumbered with numerous islands and rocks, affords good shelter.

Round Rock, with a depth of 1.2m and steep-to on all sides, and Middle Ground, awash at its N end, lie about 320m ENE, and 0.4 mile NNE, respectively, of Leary Point. The above dangers are marked by buoys.

Black Point Ledge, 0.9m high, lies about 0.3 mile S of Black Point. Frying Pan Rock, which dries 1.5m and is marked by a buoy, lies about 0.1 mile SE of Black Point Ledge.

Myra Island (Christian Island), 12m high, lies about 0.5 mile NNW of Black Point. A ledge, above-water, lies about 0.1 mile N of the island.

Depths—Limitations.—There is an L-shaped pier at East Dover village near the head of Leary Cove, with an outer face 12m long and an alongside depth of 3m. A light stands on the pier head.

Anchorage.—There is good anchorage, in 11 to 12.8m, mud, about 0.2 mile NNE of Myra Island.
