It is a cruiser's dream, with extraordinary marine services, comprehensive provisioning opportunities, fine dining and a wonderful community feel. You'll meet dozens who came here to visit and simply could not leave. The marina loans out bikes to visitors who can show evidence of a working lock, and that makes provisioning a breeze.
