Magic Island is a thrilling and picturesque public park that's popular for relaxing walks, picnics, and occasional festivals and live drama performances. It was originally created as a resort complex, but it has since become a public park available to everyone.

The whole family can find fun here as long as you like picturesque views and vibrant nature. Because it's a peninsula, you'll find access to the shore here as well. Most people spend about 2 or 3 hours here, but your trip could easily turn into an all-day affair if you get lost in the relaxing bliss.
