Perhaps a Hoot Septic System,(see image) is what you need. Check it out at.

Good luck and thank you for rating my answer. Tom

Can you tell us where you are located? Beach front land is almost certainly governed by some agency or building department and they will have strict codes in most locales. I do not think your soil would pass a perc test and is likely not capable of handling a septic system. Please tell us more.

Hi ,thanks for your help,the land is located on little corn island off the east coast of Nicaragua,the water table is only about 2 feet down and I need to be careful not to contaminate the aquifer on the edge of my 3 acer property, some suggest a dry toilet system

Sorry Hack, this is out of my league. I was picturing a little campground on a lake in Wisconsin or something similar. Maybe some other expert can help, I know nothing about ocean front property in a foreign country, sorry.

A Hoot System treats the liquid before discharging it. A dry toilet system does not address gray water. Cheers, Tom
