We had a few issues with this site. I'm not too normally sensitive to the sound of boats, but this place was an exception. They were constantly roaring back and forth offshore here, the island offshore here means that they won't be very far away. The site itself is a cave into the woods, so it's very dark. The most obvious tent pad has a tall tree leaning directly over it, and it would be unwise to use it. Swam over on the island, which had sunlight in the afternoon, and that was fine.
