In Short
With endless shopping, dining and entertainment options, it's easy to plan a full day in Harbour Town. From the docks, charter a boat, rent a Waverunner or try an adventure cruise. Hungry? Eateries range from ice cream shops to upscale restaurants. Various stores sell everything from postcards and T-shirts to unique gifts and artwork. Of course, there's always the inviting option of simply kicking back on a bench and taking in the scenery from the water's edge.
