Kea was an unprepossessing town – but it had a beach and a fuel tanker , so it fulfilled our immediate needs. My strongest memory is the nifty way the enormous passenger ferry managed to do a “hand-brake turn” onto the dock…We next made landfall at Agios Stephanos in Kithnos – a beautiful swimming bay, but poor holding for our anchor.
Jamie and Chris met an Italian family with young daughters and they immediately got on like a house on fire and arranged to meet for swimming fun the next day.
During the night, although our anchor was holding other boats in the bay were suffering. The Italians after fighting for some time, had moved to another bay but came back in the morning to meet up.
We spent the morning on the beach, Bruce towed the kids around in the rubber ring behind the dinghy. Much fun was had jumping and diving off the boat and lunching with the Italian family.
In the afternoon it was off to Serifos – hopefully to moor rather than anchor.
