The region also boasts being the bottlenose dolphin capital of the world with about 30,000 in population (2023). They are often spotted in pods of 200-300 right off the beach about 100m from Miller Beach.

The main house which was built in the 1930's was one of the first houses in the area. Later it was renovated several times to accommodate the current eight guest rooms on the property. The property runs on eighty percent solar power it also uses a commercial grade water filtration for the gardens.
