Sightseeing
Take a walk on the historic boardwalk (and maybe even jump off into the water with the children) toward the rocky, yet beautiful, Town Neck Beach. Afternoons are greeted by young families who like to sun themselves on the inlet side of the sand dunes and catch crabs in their nets.

Craving a backyard BBQ? This place brings all the comforts of home to a food truck! There are toys and play gyms for the little ones, live music and a full bar for the adults, and a large open space for larger groups. This place gets packed, so I recommend coming at 5 and staying for sunset.

While I'm not generally a fan of a restaurant in a strip mall, Cafe Chew is, hands down, the best breakfast place in town. Bob and Toebben, the owners, are always there and are friendly as ever. Lots of outdoor seating for larger groups.
