That's a big clue.  Manzanillo, Mexico

 

Yes.  The blue sailfish is a bit of a giveaway isn't it?

This is an obscure one -- a port not visited by many.  I took the shot of Maasdam from the heights above the Desert Mounted Corps Memorial:

 

 

Here is a shot of the commercial part of the harbor from the same area:

 

 

And, here is a shot of entering the harbor:

They are the cisterns in Istanbul.

We enjoyed the Topaki Palace, the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Grand Bazaar in 2009.  We ran out of time for the cisterns, and had them on the list for 2016.  The Black Sea cruise on the Prinsendam was canceled because of the attempted coup.  Hoping to get back to Istanbul someday,

Ballenas Island Light, Strait of Georgia, British Columbia, Canada, me thinks on the way to (or from) Alaska and Vancouver, BC. Beautiful area for scenic cruising
