High Island is one of my favorite anchorages. It's a place that signifies that I have arrived at the cruising grounds and great destinations are now only a few hours sail from one to the next.
It is a nearly perfect place. Uninhabited islands, no houses in site, an excellent quarry and a cool old shack, nice sandy beaches, tide pools, clams to dig, excellent mussels and great swimming. It can be a noisy zoo of rafted powerboat daytrippers on the warm weekends but they all go home in the evening. Weekdays are pretty quiet.
