Plunder Point is an odd sort of peninsula -- full of steppes and cliffs. It's tricky, but quite scenic.
Elevation and Terrain
This peninsula site is bordered by water on three sides. While three of the four corners have water visibility, only the southwest corner is truly suited for ferries and trade ports. This site also features a double-steppe system and some steep inclines.
Water Table
The deep water swirls through the site in a way that's hard to describe. However, the area immediately to the east of the highway entrance is going to be a great spot for your water towers.
Resources
The lower step on the eastern side has a spotty oil field and there is a nice metal vein and a small coal deposit all available. I'm not sure about the long-term usefulness of these resources, but the oil is especially convenient and could be a good source of bonus power/revenue.
Usable Land
Road access is from the north and is the only way into your city until you build a ferry. There is no train access. The rounded cliffs of this site consume a pretty hefty chunk of usable land, so don't expect to launch a megalopolis from this site.
