I love tradition, love seasonal activities, and this just checks the box in terms of… filling up my heart and soul cup! But yeah, beautiful as always, magical AF, what a dreamy location.

Read MoreAhhhh, the Big Bay Point Lighthouse. What a dream! I absolutely love visiting this lighthouse, but it’s extra magical when I can stay overnight.
