"Excellent stop for your bike tour. Don't miss it! And if for whatever reason you're not biking and choose to explore the island on foot, it's still close enough to the pier that you can find your way here. Maybe swing by for some coffee and snacks at a cafe? This would be an ideal picnic spot. I saw locals doing just that!"
