 believe it or not, there is a railway line (or the remnants of it) under that scrub.

Great pics, very low swell!

Also, look at the last pic right at the end of Pelsaert Island (or Long) and the tiny island is Jon Jim island I think.
There is the remains of a wreck between the two.

Also on Pelsaert, in the 30's I believe, was a resort which wasnt a raging success.
There are pics in our museum of ladies with parasols and huge dresses walking around on the coral
