I actually found this to be a very pretty campsite. I would definitely spend a night here. There is a good launch site from the south end of the island, where the kitchen is located, with excellent views. There are tons of flat tent sites in the middle of the island. Only downside is there is no wood for a fire as the ground has been picked clean so you would need to get your firewood from the mainland.

Small island exposed, not match privacy for latrine.

Small pine-covered island (too small for a latrine). OK takeout, OK shelter, great views. 2.5 stars

This is actually a very pretty spot and a very nice site. We landed here mistakenly thinking it was the larger island just north of this. However, this site had been abused in the most disgusting way. It has essentially become an open toilet with large areas where human excrament and wads of toilet paper have been left completely exposed. The island literally stunk and we had to pack up and head to the larger island site.
