Great places around to spend time with kids! You can go to pier for fishing or can just sit around and enjoy the weather - they even put free stuff for kids on the chest in the beach that all kids can use it and enjoy with building sand castle etc… there so not worry about carrying any water stuff there- just make sure once done put all backs to the chest so all kids can utilize this service..

Stopped in to checkout the coffee, my wife had regular coffee and I had a pumpkin spice cappuccino, both were very good. The views are nice, staff is nice, we would like to come back at night and enjoy the full bar on the top deck.

First time visitors and we weren't familiar with pier rules. Misty was so informative and kind. Best of all she welcomed my service dog. We'll definitely be back soon.

Stumbled upon this place last night and thought it would be fun to check out! Such wonderful atmosphere and service. Diana at the bar was a delight! Made excellent recommendations when we weren’t sure what to get to drink. Definitely check out this pier for a drink and if you are feeling lucky, catch some fish!
