Leaving the village of La Maddalena going out in the archipelago we headed to the east side of Isola Caprera expecting westerly winds.
The east side of Caprera is also supposed to be one of top 10 divesites in Sardinia with Punta Coticcio as a recommended highlight.
Cala Portese further south is a much better anchorage though with good holding in sand and larger swinging room at anchor.
Spending the first night here with our Norwegian neighbours from La Maddalena we then remained anchored here alone for the rest of the week (in high season this anchorage is completely overcrowded).
One backside of cruising can be lack of fysical training. We try to swim whenever possible and Cala Portese was a pertfect anchorage for this.
Diving Pta Cotticio is on the schedule reachable by dinghy .
