A must visit attraction! Take a nice long walk and enjoy the views. Always great to hang out with the local fisherman. They love to show off their catch. We have seen many fish, stingray, jellies and an octopus. $3/ person to walk on the pier.

Little zoo that gets great reviews. They offer animal encounters for as little as $10 with lemurs, sloths, kangaroos. Do the encounters first as the animals are nocturnal so they get sleepy mid-morning. Safari Club restaurant is getting good reviews and takes reservations.
