We were up bright and early and left Malaga at 8.10 in
the morning. There was virtually no wind and so we motored all the way to
Punta de la Mona. The coastline itself is attractive however the numerous
high rise apartments and hotels rather spoil things so it was a surprise to
find a lovely little anchorage round the corner from an equally pleasant
marina. We anchored in 15 metres of water and had a wonderful afternoon
swimming and snorkelling amongst the shoals of fish. Our first swim in the Med!
The Med at last!
Hurry up and pass me the sponge
so I can clean this weed off!
We took the dinghy ashore – after R had pumped it up
again and investigated the little marina supermarket. The marina was
lovely but the shop was hopeless so we decided that we wouldn’t stay
another day there tempting though it was and set off for Almerimar early the
next morning.
