description
Be very careful when entering from the north; there are no markers or alignment boards.
You can go ashore at the point that juts out to the east, either on the northern side or at a small rock-solid pier on the southern side. The bottom is rock/stone, so make sure the anchor is firmly set.
It can be a bit choppy with southeast winds, and some swell comes in from the fairway to the north.
The island is very beautiful and varied with lovely meadows, rugged cliffs, and lush deciduous forest. Cows graze on the island in the summer and are very curious about, for example, what you are grilling :-)
