Awoke to a few clouds but that didnt deter us on our journey to Agia Kiriaki Beach to pick up our boat rental for the day. A quick lesson on how to drive (for Geoff) and we motored down the coast towards Kleftiko, the famous pirate caves. Apparently also a famous location for getting naked on a boat and getting ‘amorous with your as boatloads of tourists cruise past. We decided to lean more towards the activities and keep ourselves clothed platonic.
A few hiccups with anchoring, mostly because the sight of a bare arse in our vision was somewhat distracting, so we upped anchor and headed to a slightly more protected bay with not an arse in sight. This wasnt before we had another mishap, namely trying to get mine back in the boat. Given that Im now sitting on the deck enjoying a gin, its fair to say that this feat was achieved, but the adherence to platonic relations was guaranteed by the unflattering angles and sounds it generated.
by the caves provided some interesting snorkelling - we splashed around looking at fish and amazingly clear water and had heaps of fun swimming through dark caves towards the blue light at the end.
Picnic lunch on board before we started our journey back, this time going against the swell and resulting in squeals of delight from two of the three passengers. We called in at a few stops along the way for a look and a swim at Tsigrado Beach, requiring descent via a ladder if accessed from land. Some more waves, lots more squealing before we headed back to enjoy our little cottage by the sea for the afternoon.
