Personal Notes
Personal experiences?
- I have stayed he many times, and have become quite friendly with one of the 'Port Captains', who took me out into the wild Delta fishing, then back to his home where his wife cooked the days catch, 50 euro for the whole day for all of us! The local 'artist' is talented and has actual local exhibitions of his work, and he will most likely stroll or cycle past your boat. It's slowly improving along the quayside, yet the inner town remains its old rustic self.
