I swear this place is enchanted. Lots of pictures to come from here...

It's a very interesting little town, with streets at different terraces graded on a natural slope, falling to the shoreline. The different terraces are connected with a sequence of small lanes and steeply sloped roads.

Very enjoyable to walk around, getting a different perspective on the place as you rise. The housing types change too as the terraces rise, getting grander with the altitude...as is the way.
