    Wonderful

    We stopped here for lunch and the food was excellent. We had a group of 10 and everyone was very pleased with their meals. The view was nice to. It was open to air so we had a nice breeze while we ate.

    Feeding the Tarpon

    Interesting local spot to visit. Touristy with outside market of art, food and drinks. Water activities for rent and fish food available to buy to feed the tarpon, seagulls and local fish from their docks. The kids had a blast.
