Reviews
"Cool graveyard for a small town"
"This is what a small town cemetery looks like. Sitting next to the water gives the place a peaceful feeling. Some of the graves are old and in disrepair while others have been buried recently. Overall this is a nice place to stroll and see the lives of the island's residents from past years."
