We had to leave Riveira early as the marina needed space for a local yacht race. It was a lovely morning so we ventured North with the intention of stopping in Ria de Muros. There was quite a large swell running as we left which was made sloppy by the reefs and rocks we had to make our way through to get north, after that it calmed off a bit. The sun was shining but the wind was on the nose and light so we were motoring. But the time we got to Muros the swell had subsided a bit so we carried on to stay the night in Finistere harbour, what a lovely place. We had seafood paella with octopus and all sorts in, beautiful. It seemed to be a really calm evening so we made the decision to carry on North to Camarinas before the High Pressure Northerlies set in so carried on passing Finistere really close. Sadly the swell built throughout the whole journey and although it wasn’t rough, the swell made all of us feel quite queezy. Still, we’re now half way up the coast of death, only one more journey to Coruna and the swell is forecast to reduce. The first of the Rias Alto.
