A bustling all-day hangout for locals and tourists alike, the Sailfish Marina Restaurant serves up crazy-good plates of grub from breakfast to dinner, all the while offering guests incredible waterfront views to drink, lounge and chat to. In the morning we’re all about the “The French Riviera”, the signature French toast with a well-seasoned custard, granola and raisins. You can’t go wrong with the Galley Benedict either, a perfectly-executed version of everyone’s Hollandaise-smothered favorite.
