    There is a free boat shuttle available to get across the river, great food in Sierpe that is in walking distance once you get across the river as well as small supermarkets. There is some nightlife within walking distance across the river, or you can hang out with me on my dock across the river. I'm usually out there listening to some music or just enjoying the cooler night air. Sierpe is a small village of approximately 5000 people. You'll get to know the locals, see the ebb and flow of the tourists, and explore the nature and biodiversity of Sierpe.
