    Callalisa Park

    Walk down to Callalisa Park to watch the sun dip below the horizon. The park is a quiet, short walk from the gallery and offers a clear view toward the west, matching the sunset direction.

    Riverview

    Head to Riverview for dinner. It is a fine dining spot with a view of the Intracoastal Waterway, located just a short walk from the gallery. The atmosphere is perfect for an evening meal after the sun has set.

    The Breakers

    End the night at The Breakers. This beach bar and restaurant is far from fancy, offering an oceanfront setting and great cheeseburgers. It is a casual place to unwind with a drink after dinner.
