If you're into a day of walking, head over to the lighthouse! The jetty is pretty easy to navigate. The island has some cool old school graffiti rock carvings. You can also climb down at the end and get right to the lighthouse. Amazing views around.

Relatively long (about 4 miles long) waterside paved walk. About half of it borders a beach and teh other half a stone breakwater. There are about 6 or 8 very interesting statues that are worth a look. One is of P.T. Barnum who was the mayor when the park was established.

About 15 minutes from the home you're staying, you can find this great brewery! The convivial taproom at Veracious Brewing is open ’til 21:00, Thursday to Saturday, as well as Sunday afternoons outside the summer season.
Some of the brews to investigate include Freddie, a powerful American stout, Golden Summer, a Belgian-style single pale ale, Pedestrian Pale Ale, Noella, a sweet and bitter winter saison, and Bloobs, a traditional American wheat ale but with a subtle blueberry flavour. Veracious Brewing Company is firmly part of the community, welcoming food trucks every Friday and Saturday, putting on karaoke nights and booking lots of local musicians.
