Honeymoon Island

Named in 1940 when the owner built some thatched cottages and invited honeymooners to come stay for free!

Stunning shot. I always love these sea and rocks shots. Nice name for an island

[KoalaGardens🐨]

[gloria jones]

Neat leading line

I take it that the thatched cottages are long gone. Are there any buildings on Honeymoon Island?

[Danette Thompson]

@vaidasguogis I’m thinking it’s for erosion prevention

[Danette Thompson]

@koalagardens they are just in this one spot, though other areas are rocky.

[Danette Thompson]

@lynnz yes, they are long gone. They had no plumbing or electricity! There is a visitor’s center, a cafe and bathrooms on the 3 mile Long Island.

Great capture and I like your composition.

[Dorothy]

Super capture! Thanks for the info.

[Glover Shearron, Jr.]

great title for this image with obvious turbulence

[Rick]

Beautiful waters and capture.

[Lou Ann]

A beautiful beach scene. I’m not sure he had many couples take him up on his offer though, no running water or electricity could be a problem!

[Peter Dulis]

Nice

[Junan Heath]

Gorgeous shot!

[Danette Thompson]

@louannwarren He had many people respond to his offer, including Ronald Reagan. Apparently, people appreciated more things in 1940. My concern would have been the rattlesnakes!

Wonderful shot
