Perched atop a rocky overlook, Dr Frogs combines beautiful ocean vistas with delicious seafood, Thai and Italian favourites. It's a romantic setting but also has a kids playground in the front garden. Live music on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday at 7.30pm combined with warm and friendly staff make this a winner.
