Sightseeing
This is a must see and a local’s favorite! Take a romantic walk on the pier and get your workout on the beach trail on the way to the Pier and grab a bite at the Fisherman’s Restaurant on the pier, or at Pierside Grill across the street from the pier. You can also grab some tasty hot cocoa at the snack shack and enjoy it while you fish from the pier.
