Landing Comments:
Rough oyster beaches of pebble, boulders, bedrock. One beach in small cove on NW side, another in small cove on SW or facing Twin Islands. Mostly protected but some landing sites exposed. Easier landing at high water. Avoid low. mid water levels – reported as hazardous – oysters. Avoid use in Spring nesting season to protect resident Black Oystercatchers (shore birds).
Camp Comments:
Upland clear areas on centre to W side 50 m from S side cove.
Other Comments:
Attractive. Small trails across islet. Larger islands are private.

GLENN JACKSON commented September 10, 2022. 2022 September: Decently warm swimming off north sides of small islands. Several spaced out tent spots available amongst trees. No freshwater source. There is no pit toilet and soil is quite shallow on rocks, so plan to use your WAG bags.
