Outdoor venue with distinct and unique shops, eateries, and seasonal events in a throwback village setting. If you love to shop this is a must do. My favorites to grab a bite to eat are Pink Basil Thai, The Bleu Squid, The Steak Loft, and Mangoes Pizza. Amazing beer selection at The Jealous Monk. Located next to the aquarium.
