Is it Jamestown? (St. Helena)

I seem to recall we did that a few months ago but photo was from water looking toward land. Looks similar.

Well done

I probably should have checked to see if we had done it before - sorry.

As for my clue - it is about to get a new airport in 2015/16 and when that happens, the RMS ship will be retired.
