Tips
The old town is small and walkable, so there is no need for a car within the city.
In summer it is very hot at midday, so it is best to plan tours for the morning and evening.
It is worth watching the sunset from the promenade near the Sea Organ.
Ferries to the islands and attractions in high season should be booked in advance.
Most of the beaches in the city are pebbles or rocks, so water shoes will be useful.
For trips to the national parks, it is worth renting a car or joining an organized tour.
