changing plans

22/10/2015

 
The original plan for October/November was cruising slowly through the Dodecanese and Cyclades islands back to Argolida.
From Nysiros we continued to Astipalaia, anchored first in Maltezana, before we changed to Ormos Livadhi to explore Skala.
Several times a day we checked the weather forecast and we realized something nasty is going to develope. First we thought about the option to go to one of the well sheltered anchorages at Paros, which we know pretty well. But as it seems the stormy winds will blow across the Aegean Sea for one week, we decided to avoid it alltogether and go back to Porto Heli. This is a screen shot from the windyty forecast for next Tuesday, October 27.

In three long legs we sailed from Ormos Livadhi to Porto Heli, spenting the night at anchor in Iraklia and Sifnos Ormos Vathi.

The original plan after we left Symi was to sail to Kos, but soon we changed our mind and continued to Nisyros: a small volcanic island with a lovely harbour at Pali.

W rented a scooter and explored the island: visited the mountain villages Emporios and Nikia, wandered inside the caldera, climbed to the castle above Mandraki and enjoyed the sunset.
There are many good tavernas around the harbour at Pali.

A short cruise in turkey and our return to greece

Bozburun is a nice little place and very convenient to clear-in and -out from Turkey. Several supermarkets are close to the marina and there are many restaurants. It was not very crowded during this time of the year.

We took the bus to Marmaris, but decided that is not a place for us to stay: no character and too much tourism.

After a few days cruising, we decided to go back to Bozburun, check out from Turkey and go back to Greece. We headed over to Symi and stayed a few days in the harbour of this charming little town.

Our Greek transit log expired and we sailed from Rhodes to Turkey and cleared in at Bozburun. A few days later we continued to Keci Bükü and anchored at the island with the byzantine castel on top.
