    Its a real outdoorsy place, a lot of people up here go out fishing and sailing evry weekend.

    There's really no better way to get out and see the islands.

    Go fishing and catch yourself a whopper, jump on a sailboat and feel the waves under you, or hit up a jetboat ride (best in waves if you like adrenaline!).

    There's a heap of accommodation option as well, everything from campsites to hostels and luxury apartments.
