A must stop as it's adjacent to Venture Out. Great place to run the "loop" (about 2 miles). Biking is also fun. You can ride the golf cart into the park for a small fee. Visit the interactive center and learn about the jetties and the local species that nhabit the park. Amazing vast views of the "pass". (shipping channel)

What to do???
There really is no need to do a lot of driving when staying at Venture Out. There is plenty of shopping, food, bars and outdoor activities within walking or biking distance. Golf cart is great for getting around but can NOT be driven on the streets or past Alvins Island. You may take it into the state park. They will charge you as if you were in a car.
