Book a short boat trip with Absolute Scuba. The golden light reflects beautifully off the water as you head out, and the staff can point out the best viewing angles.

Watch the sun dip below the horizon from the boat. The light turns the bay gold as the sun sets toward the WSW.

Return to the shore and walk to Ozone Café. It is a lively spot to swap stories about the view with fellow travelers while enjoying a drink.
Local tip
The boat ride is short, so you have plenty of time to grab a drink afterward. Ozone Café is open late, making it easy to stay as long as you like.
Check before you go
- Confirm boat availability with Absolute Scuba before heading out, as trips depend on weather and group size.
