THURSDAY NIGHTS ONLY - 5-8pm - come enjoy the Sidney Street Market with local artists, food trucks, vendors and live music!!! A fantastic way to spend an evening strolling through this quaint town and taking in the walk along the coast. You can also book a whale watching tour from Sidney, which is a much shorter ride to the whales than downtown (and more reasonably priced too, I believe!)
