Neighborhoods
Prospect and Girard are the streets where it's all happening. Boutiques, cafes and restaurants are mostly located on those two streets. Il Giardino di Lili offers sandwiches, salads and delicious pastries in a tranquil setting at one end of Girard. At the other end is the Cove where you can see the seals who have taken over the beach. It's a one mile walk from one end to the other, with numerous cafes on the way if you need more caffeine for energy. I recommend Elixir.
