Spetses, Saronic Gulf Islands, Greece

Greek Islands day 3: Spetses

Today we spent most of our time on land!!

We were out of the bay early today at 7:30am, although I'm sure some people on our boat had only just dropped into bed. We stopped for breakfast out on the water, before continuing on and pulling into dock just before 11am. Spetses is our island today and quad bikes are its game.

We partnered up and headed to the rental shops. Whitney and I put petrol in our bike and then headed off around the island. It took us about an hour to circle the island, with lots of little stops on the way. It was just beautiful.
Not a cloud in sight and endless views of sea and sky combining forever.

A highlight was stopping to look over someone's little village of a home. There were two houses, a helicopter pad, with helicopter, golf carters to get around the place, a pool area and access to the ocean. Plus what looked like a very well kept garden. Amazing!

We had lunch on a rooftop restaurant before cruising along the coast for a swim in the ocean. We also went down to a small spot, which was alive with locals, and sat for a drink just watching the tide. It was just lovely. What a way to start a Monday!

Tonight we were conned into having dinner with the other boats at an italian restaurant. It was a poor choice and one that everyone on our boat regretted. It was definitely no!
It was not one of the better places Medsailors recommended.

After dinner most people headed to an Irish pub for dancing and drinking. I took a wander around the island before heading back to the boat to call it a night.Baca lagi
