Quaint, beautiful, clean, quiet. Park by the entrance and walk along the harbor and along the beach. You can walk your dog around here and on the rocks but not on the beach. Very beautiful serene place to visit.

Beautiful views. Was also a farmer's market going on when I was there. Great place to either walk through the sand, jump in the water or just sit and watch the boats go by.
