Trachilia Inlet (Chios)

38° 13.3′ N · 25° 54.4′ E

The westernmost and narrowest of the Salagona coves — a totally deserted fjord-like inlet.

Practical

Sand. Exceptional meltemi shelter, no swell, minimal gusts (Grecosailor), but wind swirls and swings the boat — allow plenty of room or take a shore line to the west shore (CruisersWiki). Angelia cove with a small hamlet lies between Trachilia and Salagona (38.22 N 25.90 E).
