The palm tree would seem to indicate the sand of the island is capable of filtering the salt water to some level ...best use the turtle world to dog for fresh water.

... possibly building a shade wall with the sand excavated. Then just pray for coconuts and fish....

Actually maybe you can build a cove to lure and catch fish in.

Nope nope, it's a cartoon, I have to stop thinking about this.

EDIT: Oh yeah, build a cove to lure fish into, then wall it off and dump sand in it until it's dry... Fish caught.

I'm glad you didn't stop thinking about it, who knows if you'll get stuck on a tiny island with one palm tree? You'll need the ideas!

I love how many tiny-island-cartoons there are from the far side.

Hello fellow Far Side fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!
