City advice
Getting around
Fastest way to transfer is the taxi or the bus
Taxis normally take 5-7 euros for the town centre or the nearest beach but you can use the bus only for 1.5 euros and they are 2 minutes from our house. If you like walking, you can follow the road next to the port which takes you into the city centre
What to pack
Do not forget to buy suncream with UV protection
Sun is always skin burning in the summer, be careful and use always suncream
Travelling with kids
In case of emergency
call 100 for police or 166 for ambulance. Police department is near our apartment so safety thrives in our neighborhood
