Cala Santa Ponsa

With the forecasted winds and swell, I changed my mind on anchorages and we headed to Santa Ponsa. We had been warned that it was very touristy (and it was) and potentially crowded with boats (it wasn’t), but it’s also a great place to make a base. There’s grocery stores and laundry and buses all within quick reach. We used a combination of the new Donia app and Google maps and found a stretch of sand with no Posodonia and dropped the hook.

Enjoying a peaceful anchorage

There was a small marina nearby, so Trip picked up extra fuel and water (it’s hot and sticky and we need showers!). I was able to get out the paddle board to explore a bit, and the waters seemed to be jellyfish free, so we could enjoy some swimming too.
