Puerto Andraxt to Santa Ponsa

Puerto Andraxt to Santa Ponsa – 27th August 2009

When eventually we managed to tear ourselves away from Puerto Andraxt it was just to move a very short distance down the coast. Yesterday we hired a car to pick Greg up from the airport and on our way to return it this morning (Thursday), we popped down to the port at Santa Ponsa – what a pleasant surprise! Although the town itself is busy and very touristy, the port is tiny, a natural inlet about a mile away from the centre of the resort. We thought we would be too big to get in, but when we enquired at the Capitania, we were told that we could go on the waiting pontoon. We headed back to Andraxt, cast off and meandered along the coast before dropping anchor in the bay of Santa Ponsa. The water was deliciously warm and the afternoon was spent diving off the bathing platform and relaxing. Greg’s friend, Vish, who has flown out here, joined us on board via the dinghy before we headed into port and tied up in a space only a fraction longer than Zaffina on the pontoon!
