looks like coastal US/canada to me? i think i wasted a bunch of time looking for it 4 years ago on those grounds
― ciderpress, Thursday, 5 March 2020 16:24 (four years ago) link
would prefer to leave it hanging with no hints though than be told the answer
― ciderpress, Thursday, 5 March 2020 16:27 (four years ago) link
Haha yea, I keep thinking Annapolis, Portsmouth NH, or around the Chesapeake area but no dice so far!

There's kind of a naval academy feel about it!

I went on a boat tour of Portsmouth Harbour years ago. The only other people on the boat were my parents and about 20 German tourists who for some reason were all wearing light blue t-shirts with 'SHIT HAPPENS' printed on them. It was surreal.

I saw it was Portsmouth but I cheated.

Interesting, I found that much harder than Portsmouth! I wasn't even really thinking of California (and I don't know Newport Beach at all)

Interesting looking one!

done a bit of coastline-scrolling but nothing's coming together yet.

klaipeda, lithuania. the euro buildings and barrier islands had me scanning through the coasts of the north and baltic seas for a while.
― circles, Sunday, 8 March 2020 02:35 (four years ago) link
Yes! I thought this would have been an easier one than it proved to be, with such a distinctive coastline!

nice work!

(Didn't know it by sight - it just felt extremely French and I did a short cruise down the Loire. Second city I checked!)

Result!

I recognised it straight away as somewhere I had visited but got misled by the caption so was looking at cities on the Arno!
