We set off down the coast for Cassis. It is
incredibly rugged with a number of Calanques/inlets sunk deep into the cliffs.
We looked into Port Miou, which is really a Calanque just before Cassis. It was
so nice that we tied up to a buoy and the cliff wall. The water is lovely and
clear' so is great to swim off the back of the boat.
This morning we woke up to find our bedding
and mattress damp - after taking out various panels we discovered that the
shower hose on the stern steps was not switched off properly and under pressure
had been dribbling down the side of the Lazerette and found its way into the
space behind our bed and then onto the bedding. Having fixed the problem we
needed to dry out' so have stayed another day.
We took advantage of this and walked into
Cassis. A lovely town but really very crowded - just as well we didn't try
the marina either as it was very small and didn't look as if it had any space
for visitors.
