The maritime museum, which was already established in the 19th century, is certainly worth a visit. However, the most important attraction of the city is with certaintu the Roman amphitheater which Emperor Augustus has built. It is one of the largest Roman amphitheaters in the world and very well preserved. All around is the beautiful old town. Preserved are still some old gates and the market. In between colorful houses and Mediterranean flair, really exciting. Also nice: the citadel above the city. From the amphitheater as well as from the citadel, there are often beautiful views of the countryside and the sea and the beautiful beaches that lie here. To swim in the crystal clear water is pure relaxation.
