Tips

A highly recommended spot for photography enthusiasts. Wide-angle lenses are best to capture the full scale of the shells.

Reality Check

The interior theater is only accessible if you purchase a ticket for a performance.
It can be very windy on the island.
The adjacent commercial mall is convenient but lacks local character.
