There are so many places for the public ease like retail shops, restaurants, nightclubs, street musicians and sidewalk artists line it. The Boardwalk has a big sea shell stage where concerts are held more than a few times a year. Behind it, there is a beach soundless except for the sounds of sea gulls, and little kids making and breaking sand castles.

The Fort is though available by hiking or biking, but the construction itself is very weak due to storm harm, and considered a safety danger.
