  • If you love old, abandoned, dilapidated structures then you should go. It’s a brief walk to the light house and is a gorgeous view of the shoreline. I went later in the evening and saw only 2 other people walking to their car on my way to the lighthouse.
  • Love finding the hidden and slightly forgotten gems! It was a short walk to get to since the gate was closed but it was definitely worth it. Make sure you stay on the paths due to the possible unexploded bombs in the area. Take the trail the beach next to the sign. It was definitely worth the views. I made a little funky sculpture out of bamboo and vine. If you see it, take a pic and tag Sgtbostic on Instagram 😉.
