Use the website below as a tool to getting to know this city and all it has to offer!
There is a little something for everyone on the pier! Highly recommend Shellfish Company for food, although limited seating it's a special spot with some great seafood! Deep Sea Tasting Room is great spot to taste wine with a view. And the Sea Center is a perfect spot to take the kids!
An easy walk from most downtown hotels and a chance to taste and see some local gems!
Our local Courthouse is definitely worth a visit as a beautiful space with a beautiful view from the roof! An easy walk right off State Street and free admission.
This is a great area to hop around from a few different breweries, wineries, restaurants, and shops! Favorites of ours include Lama Dog (beer/wine/food), Brass Bear (beer/wine/cocktails/food/very kid friendly), and Shalhoobs BBQ! Also highly recommend Jess Conti for local leather goods (small shop across from Lama Dog) and Perlina Designs for locally made gold jewelry by a friend!
