Three weeks In Paradise. 20. Palmižana

A strong Maestral in the morning, very unusual. We motor to Palmižana, another beautiful bay in the Pakleni islands. The bay is very deep and a popular anchorage. It has been getting more and more crowded with anchored boats, while on the other side of the island there is a ridiculously expensive ACI marina that was nearly empty.
This time Mekicevica added to the congestion of anchored boats. Still it is a beautiful bay.

Palmižana: beautiful bay, but too many boats.

On the way back we timidly went out of the bay with reefed sails, but soon had to let all sails out, because the strong wind of the morning had turned into a slight breeze. On the outside of the Pakleni Otoci there was still an impressive swell, though.
We had dinner at home. Grilled squid (ligne) caught by Katica's husband. Yummy!
