Great location at the end of the harbours east pier. You can enjoy your meal looking out to sea from one window and back into the harbour from the other. There's plenty on the menu for every taste, the food is cooked well and served by friendly staff. The cocktails are good too. This place is big enough to cater for large groups and intimate enough for a couple. There is a large outdoor terrace to enjoy our good weather.

Botany bay is a beautiful natural beach. It is below cliff level so nice and quiet with no traffic sounds. The beach is sandy and stretches for miles, lovely for a tranquil family beach day. Points of interest are the chalk stacks and the amazing chalk archway. There are many rock pools here at low tide and fossils can be found. There is parking on the cliff top and the beach has a cafe, kayak and surfboard hire and facilities.
