Poor address/directions

Thomas_L, Aug 2024
Missed the boat. The address we were given was halfway down a further block, about 800 meters from where the boat embarks, and we asked at the "Information" booth, which ended up instructing us in the wrong direction. Finally arrived to the right dock 30 minutes late, no boat (of course).
