Nísos Alatas |
We made our way into Órmos Vathoudhi and explored the various coves but none really appealed or had sufficient shelter from the wind. We therefore tried anchoring just to the south of Nísos Alatas. There was a larger yacht anchored in the centre of the small bay and they seemed happy but we couldn’t get our anchor to bite properly. We think that there was just a thin layer of mud over smooth rock and the anchor was skipping along the rock with little resistance.
To ensure a peaceful sleep we moved across to the moorings in the bay opposite and secured ourselves there. We had been lucky to meet the Alan and Deborah from ‘MacCat’ when we were in Néa Klima; they keep their yacht in this bay and had said that we could use their mooring buoy if ‘MacCat’ were not in residence, so we did. Having fussed over making sure that BV was secure, and having watched the larger yacht also move across from Nísos Alatas to get properly anchored in the bay, the wind died and we were treated to a lovely sunset over millpond-like water!
