Description:
Georgetown is the main settlement on Ascension Island and Clarence Bay is the harbour. This tiny island is volcanic and its lower slopes are of volcanic ash with little vegetation. Green Mountain, in the center of the island, rises to 2,818 feet and is now covered with plants and shrubs introduced in the 1800s.
Entrance Notes and Cautions:
It is best to avoid arriving at night as there are moorings and mooring lines all over the place, in addition, a floating pipeline is a serious hazard.
Entering from 7° 55.28′ S, 14° 25.66′ W to the anchorage (7°55.2′ S, 14°.24.7′ W) keeps you well clear of the pipe.
