Why go

The group of small buildings deliberately recalls traditional island houses, with each one named after a bay. Look at their roof details and arrangement around the fountain, then turn toward the sea. The square gives a concentrated view of local architectural references without needing a long walk through the town.

What to look for

  • Seven colorful gingerbread-style buildings
  • Buildings named after the island's bays
  • Fountain and waterfront setting

Useful to know

  • Combine the square with the western end of the Great Bay waterfront.
  • Do not assume the fountain or individual businesses are operating at all times.
