Porto Carras to Nea Moudhania, 24 May

Left luxury behind, travelling across the Kassandra straits to the other side of the peninsula

The pretty, hilly town/city of Nea Marmaras waving us off on our journey.

While I am hard at work getting us across the Kassandra strait, the captain is taking a break.

Wonderful smooth sea most of the way.

Entering the Porto canal, a canal on the northern part of the Kassandra peninsula. Like Falsterbokanalen but without lock.

The Porto Canal is 1 km long. After 30 minutes arrived in the town of Nea Moudhania. Apparently a working as opposed to a tourist town. Lively tavernas along the harbour and in the town. Not much to do here so had a light lunch, Greek salad, what else, and spend the afternoon resting and reading on LelleBelle. A bit choppy.

The main attraction seems to be this beautifully decorated church.

A glass of wine and free wifi before a supper of two sausages,two eggs and two tomatoes on board. Supermarkets closed on Sundays.
