There are two potential landings, and both are difficult. There is a good view from the site, but it is in view of two other campsites. It was hard to find a bear-hanging tree. I was hammock camping, and there were very few options for hanging the hammock. Where I ended up putting it was awkward at best. The fun part was all of the turtles coming into the site to lay eggs. Overall, the site was OK, but I would have chosen a different one if I had another choice.
