Lots of neat coves to explore. Always liked checking out behind Black Island...though you must keep an eye out for rocks. Buzzel Cove is pretty cool and offers exposure to families of loons. The whole ride is peaceful and keeps you on your toes navigating...especially if you are an infrequent visitor.

We have been camping at Long Island Bridge for about 15 years now. I always wanted to make the trip from there up to Greens Basin. Its a relatively long ride from there especially with my slow pontoon. This year I did it finally. It certainly is a great boat ride. Some interesting navigating to get there. I chose to go the short way inside Nineacre and Spectacle Islands instead of out and around Whortleberry Island and through the Graveyard. A little tougher to navigate but definitely worth it.
