The wind rages between Force 0 and Force 1.  The sea is a least 2-3 centimetres high. This mirror sea extends is all directions.  A couple of very large dolphins come to say hello but they don’t stay for tea.  We encounter a sea turtle about 70cm long.  The heat haze all but blots out the neighbouring islands. And the engine chugs on.

15:00 We arrive at Panagia.  The anchorage is like an inland lake.

There are half a dozen other boat dotted around.  We have plenty of room to swing.  Suddenly a 9 knot breeze springs up and it feels wonderful.

Its very pretty here but the water in this virtually enclosed lake is not crystal clear and the snorkelling not very great.  Still a nice stop.
