The strata are at a low inclination here and headlands jut out to sea with shallow rocky reefs. I took TinTin tentatively close inshore inside the hasards only to find that one was blocking our way. With centreplate up I eased over it, only to catch the starboard rudder on a more prominent rock. Fortunately it did not damage except to take off some antifouling. However it was a suitable reminder that my exploratory instincts sometimes need to be tempered with a touch more caution.
We anchored in a wide expanse of blue shallows off a cluster of boulders for an afternoon swim and then pushed on up three eastern side of Cephalonia to Poros. We had scouted this earlier by car, and anchored just off the main beach in calm conditions for a swim. There's a diving board set in to the cliff which was providing the youth with lots of fun from about 15' up.
