Sightseeing
Wonderful tours on a high-speed boat to Seal Island with a good possibility of seeing whales and dolphins. This is one of our favourite things to do. Book ahead and don't leave to the last minute in case of bad weather!

A legend ... it's menu hasn't changed for 20 years and it is still as great as ever. Go here for lazy breakfasts, great lunches and delicious dinners. The soft spinach polenta is a must for vegetarians and the fish is always fresh and out of this world. NB. You cannot book. This is usually not a problem for breakfast and lunch but for dinner get there early and write your name up on the board if there is no table. They will then put you on a waiting list. Super-friendly waiters!

Best swimming spots
Lovely local tidal pool, safe swimming for adults and children alike. Bring your snorkel as the pool has great marine life.
