Yamani Cove is a wild well sheltered anchorage which is used by local fishing boats. The outer approaches to Necker Bay has a number of rocks and islets with breaking seas which would be challenging in rough weather but once in the lee of Yamani Island the swell dies down.
Anchor either in the main cove in 10-12m, moderate holding in kelp over gravel, or in the inner cove just to the west of the main cove. The small horseshoe shaped cove on the NE shore of Yamani Island is said to be an anchorage but is very constricted and shallow.
