THE RETURN JOURNEY THROUGH GREECE

 After Vathi, it was time to retrace our steps and wind our way back to Plataria where our boat would be stored over winter.

We stopped at Nidri, Lefkas and Ammoudia where we anchored for one particularly pleasant night. Ammoudia is the small town where the ancient River Styx enters the sea. The eerie feeling of being  surrounded by ancient myths was shortlived and we enjoyed a quiet night, gently rocking in 4 metres of crystal clear water.

From Ammoudia we sailed back to Plataria for the last time, passing by miles of beautiful coastline.
