Meloi Bay (Patmos)
37° 19.9′ N · 26° 33.4′ E
A sheltered sandy bay just north-east of Skala, within walking distance of town.
Practical
Useful overflow when Skala is crowded but holding is suspect in thick weed: aim for sand patches in the north in 5–10 m. Lunch stop rather than overnight. You can take a line to the pier or the south-side rocks (Sailing Issues). Grecosailor: tie to the nearby rock with care — it is very sharp. Taverna ashore.
