The space

Built out over the deeper water at the end of the western jetty, the deck faces due west, so every evening event here begins with the sunset. It takes a long table for thirty or a standing reception for sixty, with the Ember & Salt kitchen cooking a few metres away. The lagoon is lit from below after dark.
