Lore

In the early days of Arnor, the Dúnedain used this island as a beacon-hill, but it was abandoned when the hobbits came to dwell here. Later, a member of the Brandybuck family rowed out to the island and discovered it was a particularly excellent spot for fishing. Today Girdley Island has become a popular excursion for Brandybucks on holiday (for they among hobbits are the least afraid of water). — Lorebook
