I love the old port, it always makes me feel like a kid again, beautiful views, historic sites. I was bored and told myself, you haven't been downtown in such a long time, so I decided to go to the old port. I went to the clock tower where I decided to go all the way up on too, approximately 281 steps, going up was not so bad, but coming that was a whole other story. But if you do try bring your camera as there is exceptional views from up there.
Great restaurant, always many street players, they also have la Grande Roue now which is open even during winter. In the summer you can swing you way over the old port. Many activities for all age.
What I like about the old port is that its for all ages all occasion form you young couple, to a family with many kids and good in every season.
