“We bought our son here to ride on a beam scooter. There's lots of space for this. We also saw lots of people out with children riding bikes, scooters and playing basketball. A nice place to play and relax on the outdoor seating.”

“A go-to for both locals and tourists. There’s always something happening — food markets, live music, or just people relaxing by the water. The mix of urban design and ocean breeze gives it such a chill, welcoming feel.”
