Lunch in the village. Menu changes daily and it's carry out only, so plan to eat on the waterfront. They sell out of their popular items quickly, so go around 1pm to choose from the full menu.

If you want a message, I highly recommend this place. It's not a total "spa experience" but the owner is lovely and their massage therapists are all very skilled. Reasonably priced, too.
