Guide:
The city has plenty of free as well as payed parking spaces. The free spots (marked with white) can be seen along the streets that lead to the coast. But the most comfortable parking spots are near the beach. These can be payed by the hour (only during the summer months; free otherwise) to the parking meters. Once you park, follow the coordinates to where the electrical boats can be rented.
