Food Scene
We love to watch the charter fishing boats come in with their catch of the day, and they cut it up right there where you can watch. Naturally, all the birds in the area flock to that feast, and it’s just neat to see.

Parks & Nature
Trail goes by the water, is very pretty.
Lots of bugs around, so spray heavily before going on trail. Otherwise, lots of other areas to walk that are not so buggy.
