    Hotel Santo

    Grab a pizza from Hotel Santo. You will need to arrange this a day or so ahead of time, so check that you have your reservation sorted. It is the only pizza on the island and the staff are friendly.

    Million Dollar Point

    Walk down to Million Dollar Point. This beach spot is just an eight-minute walk from the market area. It is a quiet place to watch the water as the light begins to change.

    View from the Big Hill

    Head up to View from the Big Hill. This is a twenty-seven-minute walk from the anchor. Stand at the top and look out over the Sagond Channel and Aore Island. The sun is setting toward the WSW, perfectly framing the view as it dips below the horizon.

    Natangora Cafe

    End your evening with a drink or dessert at Natangora Cafe. It is centrally located and an eight-minute walk back from the hill. Their fresh juices and coffee are a great way to wind down after the walk.

Local tip
