Shape and shoreline

shoreline 4 mi
shoreline index 1.5
2 islands
fetch 1 mi

The shoreline is moderately indented: bays and points alternate with even stretches. The islands add structure: drop-offs around their perimeter and channels between them and the bank. The largest water around: all 13 neighbours are smaller.

The longest fetch is 1 mi along the north — south axis: wind along it builds a wave on the open water and pushes silt and food towards the lee bank.
