Created in 1918 from dredge spoil when the Lake Worth Inlet was cut, and named for a peanut-oil shipping venture that failed. The Navy built the Detachment Hotel bunker here in secret after the Bay of Pigs; it remained classified until the 1970s. Anchorage: Popular sheltered anchorage just inside the inlet with a designated snorkel lagoon and beach; strong tidal current in the channel. Hazards: No site-specific hazards noted, brief normally.
