Practical

Dock side-to on the mole; room for 2-3 yachts; good shelter from the meltemi (CruisersWiki). Grecosailor lay alongside the head of the south pier under the red light in about 3.3 m — but in a SE wind gusts over 40 kn came down the hill; use springs. Alternatively anchor off in 5-6 m, good holding in sand, more exposed to the N. Tavernas: Kyra Despina and 3 Adelfia for fish (CruisersWiki). About 20 km west of Chios Town by road.
