Port La Tour (43°28'N., 65°26'W.), entered between Baccaro Point and Green Point, about 3 miles NE, is open S and obstructed towards its head by shoals, islets, and rocks. The harbour is only available for small vessels with local knowledge which may find anchorage, in a depth of about 5.5m, E of Johns Island, which is 3 miles N of the entrance.

Depths—Limitations.—At Port La Tour Village, about 3 miles N of Baccaro Point, there is a public pier, 32m long, with a depth of 2.1m at outer end, extending from near the outer end of the W side of a breakwater. The breakwater was extended NW recently and is about 200m long.

At Upper Port La Tour Village, there are two L-shaped public moles of 99m and 122m in length. The E mole has an outer end 46m long with a depth of 2.1m along the inside face, and the W mole has an outer end 23m long, with a depth of 1.8m alongside. The moles enclose a small basin.
