This seems to be the place to go for windsurfing. And there’s this hang out bar which goes right into the water. It was packed. I had SO much fun at this bar on my February 2020 Glory sailing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted May 3 Author #909 Share Posted May 3 (edited) This has local artwork and crafts you can purchase. In the last picture you can see a finger. At this point I was told you can’t take pictures in here. Too bad. Maybe I could sell something for them. some of it is was nice. Some of it was ridiculous. Like something I could put together at hobby lobby priced at $750. Edited May 3 by Saint Greg 5 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
