Today I rented the same scooter as yesterday (it was a really good ride) to see if my luck had changed in regards to finding the Northern part of the Island and the Main pier but you can probably guess how it went, now knowing how great I am at navigating... I did however find the most beautiful deserted beach (pictures on FB, soon to come in here as well) which I had all to myself.
