Schinousa

From Mykonos we headed south to Paros for a night and then through the strait between Paros and Naxos stopping for lunch at south of Naxos then down to Schinousa. We had hoped to be able to get to Thira aka Santorini before the next Meltemi, due Monday but this isn’t going to be possible. Our anchorage in Paros was in the North near Noussa Marina, in Ormos Igouna I thought I had taken photos but apparently not sorry, it was yet another beautiful place. Turquoise water and white sand and some Mega yachts the largest was we think 180ft, we had thought the ones already there were large but this one dwarfed them all! The lunch stop was also nice see photo but the wind direction changed and it wasn’t very sheltered so we headed to Schinousa and it’s little port we anchored with line ashore as quay was full with 2large ribs alongside. We walked up to the Chora, which what the hill top towns are called, for tea and stunning views as well as a delicious meal before we walked the illuminated pedestrian route back down, completed recently with EU money. While here we met an Australian couple with a brown labradoodle called Scooter, he was a lot smaller than the mad one back in Guernsey but looked very similar, photo poor don’t think iPad has a flash. If anyone knows different please let me know where to find it!Read more
