The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic is a great place to spend some time near the waterfront. It's a nice way to learn about the maritime history of the region. It's also worth taking the woodside ferry across and back, and the Alderney ferry across and back, for a relaxing and scenic ride.
The Cole Harbour Heritage Farm has goats that you might be able to pet. While you may not be able to hold them, the farm keeps them in a pen for their own safety, and they are born in March or April, which is a great time to visit.
