This was a great night out at Wunder Bar - highly recommend this bar. The shops were very touristy and not at all like we were led to believe they were going to be like. Has a TGI Fridays, Pizza Hut and Costa Coffee if you wanted to go too (we didn't!).

Quite a strange place. Really smart but quiet. Worth a visit from any of the surrounding hotels. Cocktails in El Vino are superb.

Lovely Marina, fantastic boats. Quite quiet when we visited but there are some shops as well as some bars to sit and relax. A beautiful spot.

If you are not staying or diving, there is little reason to visit. A rather sterile marina with a few tourist shops and restaurants. Maybe in the future it will achive its potential?

This was our only venture outside of our hotel. Port Ghalib is a great looking marina and leisure area. It is beginning to get a nice selection of restaurants, bars and shops. It was a little quiet, but think it will get bigger and better over the next couple of years.
