we have been here a few times, don't like the taxi arrangements to take you to the town,cruise buses were bad enough. Town interesting for its shops problem is that it is always a short stop in terms of time. There are public loo;s however ...

The actual gun is out in the Bay, there may be an actual one at the military museum near the cable car. We took the bus from the Water Casements to Europa Point to see the Light House and 100 Ton Gun emplacement and back to Elliot's way to ride the Cable Car ...
