Sightseeing
The Harbour never looks the same way twice. The tides, 30 ft, every six hours in and then six hours out, change our landscape daily. Hike the shore at low tide to find amazing rocks, minerals and sea glass.

Cape Split is a good six-hour hike but the views at the half-way point will blow your mind. Plan an early departure to avoid hiking in the heat.
