17th & 18h May

We're still stuck. We took a bus to Tarifa. It's the most southerly part of Europe with Morocco clearly visible a few miles away. Strong winds of more than 30 knots are said to blow there for 300 days each year. No wonder it's a surfing destination. There's a castle, the old city and rows of surf shops. On Sunday we cleaned the boat and filled up with water. Late afternoon we motored to anchor outside the marina. Shortly after supper the police came to tell us we couldn't anchor there. They also visited two German boats and an Italian also at anchor. We moved back into the marina. The others all stayed. What was that all about?
