Levkas Poros 38.38.278N 20.41.766E

We are anchored in a lovely big bay of Poros 38.38.278N 20.41.766E on the island of Levkas, just north of Ithica. We had three wonderful days on Ithica and set out to sail around the island. Unfortunately, the first bay we anchored in we dragged three times. The bottom was sand and weed and we just wouldn't take. Unusual, because we usually anchor easily and well.
Because a big blow was forecast, we decided to make a dash late in the day for Levkas. The first bay we went into was full. There must have been over 100 boats there and not a space shallow enough to anchor. So, we came around to the next bay and found a wonderful anchorage in front of a beautiful beach. Today, it will be swimming and sunbathing before we move on tomorrow.

We are well and having a good relaxing time.

Es has just announced that the other five boats have left the bay, leaving only us and a few hundred people on the beach.

Hope you are all well.
Love
DAD
