Neighbourhoods
Cool and quirky, with lots of life. The beach is the main focus, with good walks along coast road to east and west. Some great cafes, watch the inter island ferry’s cruise past, and planes arrive. Two supermarkets nearby, and buses to the city centre.

This is a local icon and is well known for both the variety of food (good range of veggie/vegan), and the location. It is right on the waterfront so always something interesting to watch. Great vibe.
