There are approximately 60 oil tanks on the northern part of the island.  It is apparently used to hold reserves for many countries.  We can’t see them from the anchorage, which is terrific. The island is known for diving and, as I mentioned, the water is very clear here.  The small town of Oranj is being rebuilt.  Caribbean-style gingerbread houses are found throughout town in varying states of repair.  Some have been restored and are beautiful. 

The streets are made of a combination of cobblestones and cement and are very neat.  We saw a couple of restaurants, some places to stay and a boutique or two. 

We also saw services like small grocery stores, beauty salons, massage therapy, etc.
