The south side of Athol Island near its east end, used for north-wind protection when Rose Island is crowded.
Practical
ActiveCaptain position. A 2020 reviewer anchored here in a norther with only three boats: tuck in close to the beach so tour boats cannot pass between you and the shore; tours arrive 9 to 10 am and the last group leaves around 5 pm, sometimes passing too close. OK cell coverage.
Best for
Norther shelter with more room than Athol South
