Additional Information
Cumberland only allows 400 people per day to access the island so come early and bring a tent to camp.(Hotel is $300+ a night!) Watch out for sharks. We see them all the time. Other activities are fishing, hiking, kayaking, and its a good bodyboarding wave if your into that kind of stuff.

you guys really missed it - I have surfed the area for over forty + years. The outer bars get,although rare, large enough to drive a boat threw.We take what we have and make the best of it. Northeasters,hurricanes,big boats,whatever.I remember twice going to California and getting hosed for over two months several times. We have those days that keeps you wanting more and thank God for those. Darrell

Still waiting - I'm still waiting for that picture from Cumberland. Now I'll sweeten the pot more: Case of beer each month for a YEAR!
