The marina and commercial activity are a major draw for tourists, with Jolly Harbour having shops, bars, restaurants, a golf-course and a boatyard. The marina complex was developed on land that was previously a swamp and beach. The marina is dominated by the casino building, which has laid abandoned for many years.
The area is a popular location for expats to buy property as there is also a gated community.
