Shoal Bay
Shoal Bay is one of those anchorages you'll want to stay in longer than planned — the water here is genuinely that good, running through shades of turquoise with visibility that'll have you reaching for your snorkel. Drop the hook off a near-two-mile sweep of powdery white sand backed by beach bars and low-key lunch spots that you can dinghy into easily.
