As the island’s boating center, a variety of charter,
fishing and cruise boats line the bayside of the community, ready to take

personal watercraft are also available.
Fine dining is abundant throughout the town, as are

parade, a fall Seafarer’s Weekend and Hobie Cat sailboat races are among the
special events held yearly in this resort.
