We have it all - beautiful supervised ocean and bay beaches, lovely one family homes, restaurants, hotels, bed & breakfasts, nightlife, movies, concerts, youth group, tennis, basketball, baseball, art shows, an international film festival, Memorial Day and July 4th parades and celebrations, dock concert performances, boutiques and shops, ferry and water taxi services, a seasonal and transient boat marina, medical and nursing services, a post office, little red wagons and bicycles. And in the summer, there are no cars!
