Hello VHR,
Is there any way you could make it a map. There is a lot of distractions with the image as a background.
The north arrow is way too big. It covers half the image, and it is not that important.
Just some early thoughts,
kru

vhramos - to use this for finding the way around, it would be handy with landmarks. A very basic/fundamental landmark in a town are the streets - and they are hard to find there now. Others are important buildings, such as churches.
I think you should look at how you can provide the map reader with enough information to find the way around.
It looks like a nice place with the sea all around like that!

I´d say it´d be best to have the labels near the objects. That would transform it into a map in my opionion.
