Just over the bridge this place is an old gem being dusted off and refined, very cool to see all the old original structures and fortifications. It also has a super nice main st vibe with cute little shops and restaurants and bars to explore.
Watch your timing and try to plan it around avoiding bridge and tunnel traffic. Leave after peak and return before or after peak in the evening.
