19-05-2018 VOLOS - ACHILLEION

Weather : sunny with few clouds, 24°C
Wind : 2 Bf ESE
Log : 26 NM

After a 3hour flight we arrived in Volos at 10.00h, we took a taxi-shuttle in to town (60 € / 7p).
The people of Mixit were waiting for us at the quay, so we could do the checkin an groceries immediately.
Our yacht NOTUS a Bavaria 46 Cruiser is in excellent shape, and very well maintained.

At 14.30h we left Volos.
There wasn't much wind, and it came in right on the nose, so we motored most of the trip.

We wanted to go to Ag.Kyriaki but there was a flottilla moored here, so every space was taken.
So we decided to go to other side of the gulf, it was ca 7 NM to Achilleion.

In Achilleion there are moorings on the quay, so no need to anchor.
We found a nice place on the quay directly in front of a nice Greek taverna.
Of course at night we had our first Greek diner here.

Greetings from Achilleion,
Annelies, Ben, Elvira, Michel, Diane, Koerel en Koen
