Mtwara - Docking
There are no yacht berths here and the two available mooring buoys should be used only with caution. If possible, check how secure they are first.
The recommended anchorage is off the wharf in the commercial port, but take care to keep out of the large ships which use it.
Mikiandi: This bay is just 2 miles away and is recommended in some pilot books. It is an attractive and secure anchorage, but the bay is large, and it is necessary to moor a long way from the shore. There is no safe place to leave a dinghy.
