Good stop to see the Dolphins with some info boards.
Felt that there could be some more info about the whole tourist feature, A lot of stories waiting to be told about that location, drive up the hill and round the point and the new harbour under construction waiting to be viewed.
Fascinating!

Safe shopping, well organised great range of stock. Easy to find the things we were looking for. Hope the cafe opens soon for sit in, I think it's takeaway only at present and you may have order in advance.

Great selection of plants! Good store but one way system is so confusing i think it's time to stop that. People would bump into each other without one way system. Place is massive and it would be easier to avoid people if you wouldn't have to follow the arrows.
