The friday fish fry is just alright; but I really recommend the live bands that play every friday. Small dance floor, small crowd, worth it if you have a partner. Art Gallery upstairs.

Sightseeing

McKinley beach is my favorite because it's cove-like; surrounded on two sides by tall piles of huge stones. Smaller than it's brother Bradford down the way, less crowded.
