Watermill Cove
✨ Hidden gem
Watermill Cove sits on the northwest coast of St Mary's, tucked away in a remote and historic anchorage well away from the bustle of Hugh Town. You anchor off here and take in one of the quieter corners of the island, with the coastal path connecting you to Pelistry Bay and the broader St Mary's circuit if you fancy stretching your legs.
