Kyparissia Harbor, and Kalyra anchored on the right

We decided to split our run to Pylos over two days (we’ve got fewer daylight hours these days). The harbor of Kyparissia added on a few miles, but it was a good halfway point that came recommended by other cruising friends. With moderate winds I had a great sail down. I say ‘I’ because a belt snapped as we were motoring out of the harbor, and Trip was down below replacing the belt and tightening bolts while I was at the wheel enjoying the wind.

There’s not a whole lot to Kyparissia, but it was a quiet little harbor where we could anchor inside, see a couple of turtles, and have dinner overlooking the harbor. Then it was bedtime, as we had another full day of sailing ahead of us.
