It's been a bit since I've seen an update on the island. Anyone have any news or pictures to share on the rehabilitation of the area? Thanks

I am hoping we get some current family beach photos soon.
Anyone know if any or all of the excursions were going?
I didn't take any pictures there, but it wasn't too much different from Serenity Bay. The beach is wider but the sand is in the water, thus reducing the depth. They were able to have loungers and umbrellas out , but there is a big shelf to step down from the seating to the beach, like in the pictures of Serenity Bay. The swimming areas were reduced and if you are on the Dream or the Fantasy, it is going to be very crowded. The snorkel area was open.
One server said they only had 8 cabanas in use and it looked like their swimming was severely impacted, similar to the crew beach.
I think Disney can get Castaway Cay back to normal in a few weeks though. They really just need to get the sand out of the water, for me. I'm not one to use the Cabanas. The shops were open, even though we had been told by one CM that they were not.
I thought that the foliage had some damage, but not as much as I had seen on previous visits after a hurricane.
If you have any specific questions, I will try to answer them.
Thanks for the info.
Do you know if the cabanas that were closed are closed due to damage to the cabanas or because of their beach//lack of swimming water situation ?

I believe the cabanas were closed due to beach erosion and not to damage to the actual cabanas.Thanks for the info.

Following.... any updates on Scuttle's Cove (the kids area)?
Did you go to the family beaches at all? It seems that they'd be in (a little) better shape as they are protected from the storm surge somewhatWe were at Castaway Cay on Wednesday. Still no loungers or umbrellas at Serenity Bay, only the beach chairs. We didn't stay long as we wanted to have a lounger and some shade.
