The one-stop-shop for delicious sparkling wine in the County. Enjoy the beer garden-style outdoor seating and visit with the resident roosters. They have some fancier wines, but we love the affordable Whitecap, which is light and fruity, and their new cider. This is a lively spot on weekends. @hinterlandwine

The world's largest baymouth barrier dune formation, Sandbanks has three beautiful white sand beaches. The Outlet Beach on the East Lake is the most popular and can get very busy so either go early or around 4:00 p.m. and stay for the gorgeous sunsets. Also visit Dunes Beach for unique sandy hills and views, and Lakeshore Beach for the waves - both are located on the West Lake.
