Straits View Condo can also serve for business meetings, and golf trips. Staying on the island, you can enjoy tours of the historic sights in a more leisurely manner. Visit the fort overlooking the straits, historic buildings, and the Beaumont memorial. This is the place where Alexis St. Martin was shot in the stomach, affording Dr. Beaumont the opportunity to conduct his famous research into gastric physiology. Visit the Butterfly House, the historic island cemeteries or just explore on foot or bicycle.
Bicycle rentals are available.
Horse carriages may be rented, and horses for riding hired, from several stables. The 8 mile road around the perimeter of the island offers beautiful views in all directions. The interior of the island is criss-crossed by numerous trails, some paved and some quite rugged. Of course there are the numerous fudge shops, but there are also restaurants ranging from simple to elegant. Among the numerous shops, there is even a scrimshander that has unique works for sale.
