The mission starts at the water end. Right after you take the nearby stairs, you will run into the enemy's outpost (the above screenshot). The area is patrolled by the guards, inside the lodge there is a fourth one. Next to the lodge there is a spotlight that, unfortunately, cannot be destroyed.
You can reach the outpost safely in two different ways. Variant one assumes jumping over to the catwalk to the right (the above screenshot) (use the chain that Corvo can jump onto). Right after you reach it, depending on your preferences, you could remain on the catwalk in order to eliminate the guard there, or start climbing to end up above the lodge.
Variant two assumes that you reach a small square located to the right of the outpost (the above screenshot). Jump onto further objects to reach rooftops. It is a way better solution if you just want to go around the outpost without having to attack the guards.
A less obvious way to go around the outpost is to swim up to the balcony visible in the above screenshot. First, you would have to teleport (Blink) onto the poles projecting above the surface of the water, and then onto the balcony itself. The downside of this approach is that there are piranhas in the water, and you could be attacked by them.
If you managed to eliminate all of the guards around, you could have a look around for gold and pistol ammo. Otherwise, go to the door leading to a nearby warehouse (the above screenshot). On the warehouse's ground floor, there are gold and food. On the first floor, you can find gold, food, a blueprint, the warehouse key and a Piero's spiritual remedy.
