Sailing with Jen and Pete in the Islands of the Dodecanese, Greece. This was on an Oceanis 350 'Notos' with Sunsail, out of Kos. A coincidence was that 'Notos' was originally based in the Sporades Islands and was in our group of yachts when we sailed in the Sporades in 1989.

Fabulous holiday, great company and some exhilarating and hilari…  (read more)

Leros Island, View from Castle, Dodecanese

Sailed from Vathi, Kalymnos island to Panali/Pandeli Bay, past the small Piganousa Island, 15nm. Moored alongside the quay in the picturesque harbour; white houses with blue shutters, and the Castle on the hill. On the next morning we walked up to the Castle, 2 kms by road, and then back down steps 800m. Fabulous view of the island from the Castle.

Port Augusta, Arki, Dodecanese, Oceanis 350 'Notos'

A delightful, sheltered harbour. 'Arki (Αρκοί) is a small Greek island in the Dodecanese, situated three miles north of Lipsi and eight miles ENE of Patmos. The island has about 47 inhabitants, all in one hamlet in a deep inlet on the SW coast, where there is a small and rather shallow harbour, Port Augusta. It is not a very mountainous island, but very rocky and most of the inhabitants raise animals: sheep, goats, cows, and a few horses.'

Port Augusta, Arki, Jen, Gill, Ian and Pete on 'Notos'

The wind was quite strong at Maratho Island, rocking us and gusting all night Force 6-8. We went a couple of miles across to Port Augusta on Arki and tied up to the quay for the day. Relaxed, walking, swimming and reading. Numerous boats arrived later in the day, very cosmopolitan, French, German and English. About 9 boats in a very small harbour. Only two Sunsail boats, ourselves and the other Oceanis 350 'Boras'. Dinner at the local Taverna was very good – traditional Greek fare, fresh red snapper, cleaned on the beach. Tzatziki, garlic sauce, greek salad, meat balls, and fresh bread, washed down by white Makedonikus wine. A good night’s sleep in spite of the cockerels who started calling at 4.30am and carried on for another 5 hours. Sailing with Jen and Pete in the Islands of the Dodecanese, Greece. This was on an Oceanis 350 'Notos' with Sunsail, out of Kos in September 1994.

Ormos Xeros Kambos, South of Leros

Gentle, downward roll to Ormos Xeros Kambos/Xerokampos on the South of Leros Island. Anchored with the help of Dazzer who dug in the main anchor and also put out the kedge. Holding is not good there. They had two moorings and apparently one guy drifted out to sea complete with the concrete mooring. Sailing with Jen and Pete in the Islands of the Dodecanese, Greece. This was on an Oceanis 350 'Notos' with Sunsail, out of Kos. 'The Dodecanese islands are located in the southeast part of the Aegean Sea and consist of twelve major islands and a number of smaller islands. Some of those Greek Islands are located at the border to Turkey. They have everything to offer to the visitors: whitewashed houses, beautiful beaches with crystal waters, charming villages, exciting nightlife and more…' Description from www.greeka.com/dodecanese/ Xerokampo/Xirokambos/Xirokampos www.sailingissues.com/greekislands/leros.html
