A day at the Boatyard is a must if you have kids or are kids at heart - trampolines, rope swings and slides galore plus lovely white sand and cocktails. Don’t go on a Wednesday as it’s cruise ship day and rammed / not suitable for kids

Sightseeing
The restaurant is a fantastic spot for lunch perched on the cliff with delicious food and the views are stunning. There are a few cute shops with clothes and souvenirs. I wouldn’t necessarily go into the cave itself
