A unique & amazing local (winter) event. Eagles by the hundreds gather to feed in a local field. The community puts on a fine breakfast & everyone gathers from miles around to watch the phenomenon & catch up on gossip. The eagles themselves are breathtaking & so are the massive lenses there to photograph them! A not-to-be-missed gem of an event.

Parks & Nature

Lovely trails of varying lengths & descriptions, camping & picnic areas. The high & low tides hide & reveal dramatic red clay beaches towered over by massive stratified bluffs. It's very dramatic & beautiful at any time, in all kinds of weather.
