Aerial photograph of a coastal town with a large whitewashed colonial-era fortress built on a rocky headland above the ocean. The fort has white walls, red-tiled roofs, round corner bastions and a courtyard with a flat roof area. Dense low-rise buildings with red and tan roofs fill the town behind it, a road curves past a palm tree, and surf breaks against dark rocks along a sandy beach. No people or a person are visible.
