This port has one large tender shuttle, and the cruise ship lets down two of her own lifeboats as tender boats, too. I took this photo from the ship looking down at the shuttle and tender boats:

It was early on a Sunday morning and the shops were not open, but I really liked the looks of this little town and the murals on the walls.
