There is nothing hidden about this island. It is visible in plain daylight. Also, there is nowhere to hide here either. It takes about ten minutes to go around the island on the coral-filled beaches. A great place if you are into snorkeling and diving.

This is about as basic a motorized ferry as it gets. Most of the time, the water beneath you is only a few feet deep. At low tide, I suspect you could simply roll up your shorts and wade across to the other island.

The schedule is remarkably uncomplicated. There are no timetables, no ticket counters, and certainly no departure announcements. You simply stand on the jetty and wave your arms vigorously. The boatman spots you from the other island and, sure enough, heads over to pick you up.

It is a warm, albeit cloudy, day. Why the boatman is dressed as though he is headed for an Arctic expedition, I will never know.

We drove up to a high point on the hill that you have cross to go to the north side of the island. It was a cloudy and rainy day but the views still looked great. The island out there is the Hideaway Island. It is on my list to visit today.

This beats swimming for me!!
