Great place to walk around seeing shops, restaurants, bars and a beautiful castle. Walking areas along the water at night is wonderful.. Highly suggest strolling around city center at night...

Beautiful seaside town with shallow water off pier in protected bay - perfect for kids. Water is clear and fun for snorkeling.
