Because the beach was used for landing
guests and supplies only a portion of the
beach could be used for swimming.
The dining facilities on the island consisted
of a wooden structure where the food was
prepared (above) and another wooden
structure with picnic tables where the guests
could eat (right).
The straw market was a series of wooden booths.
As of this writing, NCL is continuing its multi-million
dollar enhancement of the island.
Additional beach areas are being developed and various
other improvements are being made to the facilities and
infrastructure.

As they do today, guests and supplies
arrived on the island prior to the 2010 -
2011 improvements to GSC on tenders.
However, there was no dock on the island
and so the guests and supplies were
landed on the main beach in a manner
similar to the amphibious landings seen
in World War II movies.
