* Mosquitoes inhabit this island year round.

* There are no sales facilities of any kind.

* Trash pickup is not provided, and campers and visitors must pack out all their trash.

* The harbor entrance at low tide is approximately four feet. Any deep draft vessel requiring 3 ½ or more feet of water should exercise extreme caution in this area. Low tide is calculated by adding one hour and forty-three minutes to the time that the tide is low at Miami's Government Cut. High tide is plus one hour twenty-four minutes from the time that the tide is high at the Miami's Government Cut.

* Boca Chita harbor has a cleated bulkhead that is the only designated area where boats may dock. Boats may raft no more than two deep. Pets are not permitted on the island nor on boats in the harbor.

* An overnight docking fee of $15 is assessed between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. Use of one individual campsite is included in the docking fee. Register at the automated kiosk next to the edge of the harbor.
