This place is your own little Gilligan's island. You can walk the whole way around the island on its Sandy beach. It just has coconut trees and palm fronds in the center. Whatever seads wash ashore. The photos I chose to include were pre hurricane. I thought it would be important to document what it looked like before two catagory 5s. And, hopefully, what it will look again soon. There's nothing on the island, and it's rarely busy. But, it's a neat experience to go to an island most people only dream of seeing. Stop and make sure you walk all the way around the island. Reccomend.

It’s a fun little island with rough water on one side and calm water on the lee side. Not much to see from a snorkeling perspective but fun to swim around.

One of the most beautiful places I’ve experienced in my life. Going here is a serene experience especially if you’re able to visit it alone. Please do your part if you visit here and leave nothing but footprints and take nothing but memories

A cool place where some Corona commercials were filmed. Very photo-worthy!
