Head up to the North End and try your hand at pier fishing. Summertime catches include flounder, bluefish, Spanish mackerel, mullets, and lots of sheapshead - a smaller but exceptionally tasty fish that is especially popular in the months of June, July and August. There is also a small restaurant and tackle/bait shop on the premises!

Take a long, leisurely walk on the beach from the condo to the Tiki Bar and then stop in for a refreshing adult beverage and a snack before heading back. Facing the ocean, look to your right -- that pier you see with the little green building -- that's where you're headed.
You could also have lunch or dinner at the Ocean Grill, but you may want to clean up and drive there for that.
