Continuing around Ibiza with Arno aboard with the weather forecast from the South at 20k plus we headed North to Portinatx. Another beautiful location and perfect weather for a swim and snorkel. We swam to the beach and Arno paddled the inflatable lilo we found during the crossing from Spain. Jen was stung by a jellyfish here (mauve stinger) on her back and had a bit of a burn after. She said it wasn’t too bad after all. We caught some fish along the way, it must have worked when Arno and Jenijane spoke to the lure in fish language. One of the mackerel we caught had 6 smaller mackerel in its stomach…greedy boy ! We used them for bait and caught a nice bream when we were anchored. Ok enough fishing stories..
The North coast of Ibiza is just as beautiful as the South and as its very late in the season there are very few other yachts around which suits us fine.
We headed to Cala Portitexol for the day and it was definitely one of the most beautiful bays (and smallest) we have been to. We had it to ourselves with just a couple of locals on the beach. Unfortunately there were a few jelly fish blown in but still it was amazing.
yep its tiny and beautiful !
We tied Sephina to the rocks to keep her from swinging around her anchor, a bit of a mission to accomplish but a first time for everything.
Back to San Miquel for a bit more protected anchorage for the night and Arno is off to the beach on sunset to party with the locals. He paddled the lilo about 30 minutes in a less than sober state to the beach and probably more like an hour to return after dark, too funny, he fell over coming back on board and Jen tried to help him but he fell over again..ahh captain haddock strikes again
