Motor south in 30 knot Northerly to very protected Castro Marina Bay. Anchor in 8 metres off the Grotto to the West side of the bay. We are the only yacht there. Water flat despite gale blowing outside. There is a good size marina dedicated to shallow draft motor boats.

Up market vacation town. No apparent history but everything very well managed. Beautiful clear water in Grotto at base of town. Several touristic restaurants.
