“Shelter Island is home to boats of all types, and provides a rare, well-equipped sandy beach in the Point Loma vicinity, without crossing over the hill to Ocean Beach! Plenty of resorts & marinas bring lots of activity to the area, including the Humphrey’s by the Bay concerts. I’m a regular at the fishing pier, which is really the heart of Shelter Island, in my opinion…” Sandbag C. Gull
