Well, that’s us out of the Gulf du Morbihan now. We left yesterday to catch the tide into Port du Crouesty on the Eastern edge of the Morbihan and rafted up next to a nice Southern Irish family who keep there yacht up the river Villaine. We spent 7 days and 6 nights at anchor; we took a bus trip to the Carnac Alignments - large megalithis, stone circles, tombs and stone rows which make Stonehenge look pretty small. We went to The city of Vannes which was interesting but mainly we spent the time on the stunning beaches, swimming, sunbathing and watching the many (French) speedboat and yacht owners having nightmares anchoring or picking up mooring buoys 😂 On one day I actually had to swim out and reposition a RIB anchor which was dragging as the old French owner couldn’t swim!!!!!
The Morbihan is an awesome cruising area with lots of shallow ground, beautiful coves and stunning beaches. There are oyster beds everywhere and some vicious currents running which keep you on your toes but with careful planning and sound pilotage drills it is a wonderful place to visit. We had to leave after 7 days to get the laundry done😂 We will stay in Port du Crouesty for the weekend then move on to La Turballe. Happy days🤗
