    Lefkada Marina

    May 19, 2023 in Greece ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Kastos to Lefkada Marina. Necessity - that’s the only reason we go into marinas and specifically avoid this one. As per usual a freak unexpected wind came up for just under an hour of over 30 knots- not showing on any forecast. An hour later and an hour of diesel keeping us away from the pier as the anchor can only be dropped as far out as the floating new floating jetty in front of you. However we were more than overdue on a clean and to drop our code 0 for repairs of the rips along the luff. The last time we also had a bad experience was a day before the Medicane in 2020 and we had to put our dinghy between us and the pier ( we were new to med mooring and didn’t seat the anchor or put enough out. And a freak wind ripped through as well. Oh this time and a boat rammed into us when mooring badly 😂 avoid marinas!
