Happy easter everyone!
Anchored in the very sheltered Valentia River after a very gentle sail around the headlands from Bantry Bay. Wind is lightish SE with little swell in the river. Did originally go to Dingle itself and enjoyed a late afternoon stroll ashore and harbour guy, not exactly sure who he was, recommended an anchorage on the southern side of bay rather than N side anticipating a swell overnight and ideally Valentia if we could get in. As it turns out there is only 1 other cruising boat here. Absolutely stunning scenery here with backdrop of Slieve Mish Mountains towards Tralee. Doesnt look like much wind tomorrow or Tuesday so will explore the bay a bit and assuming nothing changes make the voyage to Galway leaving Wed morning in time to meet up with Andrew.
