SH is Awesome!
Here are some of our favorite things to do and places to eat. We hope you guys get to enjoy this awesome island as much as we do, and experience our happy place that we are not-so-secretly obsessed with! For those with families or young ones, Stone Harbor is a great option and has activities like mini golf, shuffleboard, Springers, and more. For our 'younger' crowd looking to go out, check out a few bars in SH, or head to Avalon for a night out. God bless you if you make it there.
