I found this small, uninhabited cay remarkable for two reasons. First, it was a great place for exercise. We ran Cub up a small creek to explore the island, but the creek soon shoaled and I had to pull the dinghy, mit passenger, through very thin water for many hundreds of yards. Heck of a workout!
Second, on high ground bordering the eastern shore is located what I can only term a "dump". The cruising guide said it is a tradition for yachties to place here memorabilia -- of what exactly, I don't know. Perhaps themselves and their adventures. There were a few efforts at creative humor with painted toilets, etc., but yuck -- it was nothing but an island junkyard!
