Notes to sailors
  • The canal between Mykonos and Tinos has fierce gusts when the meltemi is blowing.

  • Ornos Bay is the most protected from the meltemi anchorage in the island. There are, though, very strong gusts which can come very suddenly during the night. The bottom is weed and at places it provides very poor holding.


  • Visiting yachts normally berth at the uncompleted Mykonos Marina two miles W of the main town, which is the only safe harbour on the island. Since its partial completion, yachts are no longer permitted to berth in Mykonos old harbour, which is reserved for tripper boats.

Notes to sailors
  • Mandraki is the commercial harbor of Nisyros. When the ferry boat from Kos arrives the day-trip boats exit the harbor   because there is not enough space. Yachts are discouraged in Mandraki. In this respect Pali is better.

  • The approach to Pali should be from the north, avoiding the extensive shoals in the bay immediately east of the harbor. You are turning the beam on to the prevailing wind and swell to enter and care is needed if a strong meltemi is blowing.

  • While approaching the small island of Yiali be aware that about 0.5 nM SW of the island there is an underwater reef.
