Limestone quarries dot the island. The East Quarry has a hiking trail attatched to it. There are fossils all over the place. Along the trail, you can see some of the foundations for houses that used to stand here

State Park Beach

Six miles of hiking trails through two nature preserves. A swimming beach offers relief from the summer heat. This is where the campground is located.

Located on the north side of the island, these grooves were carved into solid limestone bedrock
