Tunisia!!!

 

First sight of Africa!

After having sailed all night, I see the African continent in the morning.

 

Bizerte

Spend a few days in the fishing port of Bizerte before heading to Kelibia with Sailing Yacht Revolution(on board, a real cool family: Crispy, Fifi and Wes).

 

Kelibia

Another fishing port.

 

Beni Khiar

Still heading South.

 

Monastir and area

Well, this is it. Arrived in Monastir on the 15th October, having travelled 1930 nautical Miles(3474km).

Jasrah will be spending all winter here and me some of it only.

 

Believe it or not but this little chap is an absolute terror. He looks cute but he hisses at people.

 

Sousse

A rather touristic place but also quite nice.

 

El Jem

What have the Romans done for us?

This is the third biggest coliseum in the world!

 

Karouan

Fourth holiest city according to Islam.

The medina is simply incredible.

Sardinia

Heading South, following the east coast of Sardinia.

The stops included Cannigione, Olbia, la Caletta, Arbatax and Porto Corallo .

Corsica

 

Nightime crossings are always magic.

 

Arrival in Corsica

Arrived in Girolata in the morning, a place only accessible by boat or on foot(Maybe parachute if you’re James Bond).

 

Going down the west coast

Stops included Sagone and Anse de Conca before heading off towards Bonifacio.

Was invited by some nice french people on a sailing boat for a home-made Bouillabaisse with the fish that was freshly caught.

 

Bonifacio

Stayed in Bonifacio for a few days as the wind was rather strong to cross over to Sardinia. Met some really cool guys(Luc and Arthur) here who lived on their boats.
