Fatourena Anchorage (Milos Bay)

36° 42.1′ N · 24° 24.5′ E

A pebble cove near Emborios on the south shore of Milos Bay, the cruisers' choice when a southerly makes Adamas uncomfortable.

Practical

Sailing Issues names Fatourena as the preferred anchorage in strong southerlies. Greeka: a secluded, unorganised pebble beach with no facilities. Pin from the Sailing Issues map. Open to the north and north-west across the bay, so move back to Adamas when the meltemi returns.

Best for

Southerly-wind shelter inside Milos Bay
