The two maps illustrate the major changes in a harbour from 2000 to the present time. Overall, the port has undergone a significant development marked by the introduction of numerous amenities and the renovation of others. In 2000, the harbour was joinable from 2 entrances starting from the main road, which is located alongside the western edge of the map. However, another entrance has been settled in the recent plan. Indeed, a new entry was exclusively devoted to a large car park as well as additional toilets and showers. Furthermore, the marina and its private yachts have taken a larger area in front of the new toilets whilst the fishing boats were permuted to the initial marina’s space in the 2000 port’s feature. Alongside the northern entry of the port, new docks and passenger ferries, located before arriving at the public beach, were erected. On the other southern side, new cafes and shops were constructed in addition to the replacement of the further eastern castle with a hotel. To summarize, the following harbour has been developed with the introduction of a fresh infrastructure and the renovation of the ancient ones.
