We entered this lovely bay and anchored and were helped to tie back by the resident restaurant owner, who also has mooring buoys you can use. He came and picked us up in his boat at 7.30pm as agreed and we walked to a really humble genuine family owned restaurant, a lovely setting amongst the trees, joined not long after by Mark, a Dutchman, from a southerly yacht named Bluemoon. We had a lovely evening, chatting and trading interesting places we had been, the owners were so lovely, we chose lamb and Mark had fish, all very nice indeed. Were taken back to our boat and had a settled night in this beautiful bay.
