Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The view from the promenade offers a clear line of sight to the horizon as the light fades.

End the evening with dinner at Husk. This southern restaurant is an eight-minute walk from the park. It is open until 22:00 on weekdays and 23:00 on weekends, making it perfect for a late sunset meal.
