The water in the harbour is so clean that you can drink it (if it wasn't sea water). Is it hot? Go take a swim here - the place is awesome (and very crowded on a sunny day).

Fancy a run? Then this area is the best. Run nearest the water. It is safe to run there day or night (but a bit dark a night, since they have removed all lights so you can see the stars at night)

Fancy a (longer) run? Then go here. It's not a park, but more of a semi-rough nature area. It's flat as a pancake, but nice - and absolutely safe at day. It's not unsafe at night - just a bit dark! :)
