The island has been cleaned and cleared of low-lying vegetation with all mature trees left remaining. The island been filled by hand-dredging sand from the surrounding waters to raise the elevation and provide suitable drainage. It’s also been cleaned and cleared of low-lying vegetation with all the mature trees left remaining. The hand-dredging has created some private secluded sandy beach coves on the island, as well.

As a preventative measure to protect the island and prevent erosion, the entire north shore of the island (640’) is protected by a newly constructed 3’ wide seawall of coral limestone bedrock. There’s an additional 40’ length rock jetty extension off the NE corner of the island, as well as 130’ seawall dock extension off the NW corner of the island. The stone seawall dock extension is 4’ width and topped with concrete/cement to provide a stable walking surface for people to walk the length of it and to safely enter/exit from boats.
