点评:Perhaps I came with the wrong expectations as I am used to Mediterranean marina’s and especially those on the Spanish islands, where they are generally a hub for bar and restaurant culture and especially night life, which usually stretches around three sides of the jetty’s housing the expensive yachts.
But Cullen Bay is more like a private development built for the benefit of people who can afford to live here rather than as an attraction for locals and visitors. For example you cannot actually get to the Marina waters edge except for a very small strip on the far west side, which houses the one bar and couple of restaurants, and there is absolutely no chance of walking around the marina from west to east.
Yes it’s a good spot to watch the sunset and I also gave it an extra mark for the crocodiles, but frankly, compared to what I am used to Cullen Bay was all a bit disappointing and more resembled an expensive retirement complex than a vibrant entertainment hub. And if you do want to watch the sunset I suggest you wait until an evening when the Mindil Beach market is on and watch it from Mindil beach.
翻译:也许我抱有错误的期望,因为我习惯了地中海的码头,尤其是西班牙岛屿上的码头。这些码头通常是酒吧和餐厅文化的中心,尤其是夜生活,通常围绕着停泊着昂贵游艇的码头三面延伸。
但卡伦湾更像是一个私人开发项目,是为了那些有能力居住在这里的人而建,而不是为了吸引当地人和游客。例如,你实际上无法到达码头的水域边缘,除了最西侧的一小段,那里有一家酒吧和几家餐厅,而且绝对没有机会从西向东绕着码头走一圈。
是的,这是一个观看日落的好地方,我也给了它一个额外的分数,因为它有鳄鱼,但坦率地说,与我习惯的相比,卡伦湾有点令人失望,更像是一个昂贵的退休综合体,而不是一个充满活力的娱乐中心。如果你想看日落,我建议你等到晚上明迪尔海滩市场开放的时候,在明迪尔海滩观看。
