This landing has a simple dock and little else to aid ships and their cargo but the landing is sheltered and a natural rock formation provides the landing with a reasonable lee area for vessels.
The landing dock leads to land where there is a stone wall surrounding a compound containing around 15 buildings of reasonable size. This trading post came to be due to the possible profits associated with trade from this area. Every 2 months some traders from the local tribes come here to barter for supplies they are unable to produce themselves and trade various spices, herbs, gems and other such valuable commodities.
Trading boats come mostly from St Hylena who has several vessels and pilot used to navigating in the shallow and changing waters of the Crocs Escondidos delta that leads to the landing.
