Creator's Key Takeaways
If you want to come to the beach, yeah, this is a great port, actually. Cuz it's just 5-minute walk and you're here.
That's the big downside to organized trips for me. That very often you're either there for ages and you're bored or you so, you go somewhere great and you're only there for 15 minutes.
If you're not going to go in the tower, and you just want to look at the views, you don't need to walk all the way to the top, in my opinion.
