Today's GAPP is an Island Pool, one of the types featured in the current GP round. I did the round yesterday and can highly recommend giving it a go, the puzzles are great!

Rules: Shade some cells so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area and no 2x2 region is entirely shaded. Clues cannot be shaded and represent the areas of all unshaded regions which contain at least one of the (up to eight) surrounding cells. Gray clue cells are considered neither shaded nor unshaded.
