Blackpool
Blackpool is a small settlement on the southern coast. The beach is popular with kayakers and windsurfers.
Blackpool was originally called Brown Bay, after the Brown family that occupied the area.
Blackpool is also the home to a few community living houses. These houses share their resources and financial costs as well as encourage fun, creative thinking, and cultural exchange.
