Anchorage - Mandrak harbour Rhodes

It is not a great distance from Datca to Symi. Anchored in Pedi Bay this time and took the bus to Symi town to check back in to Greece. The process is simple if  you remember that customs shuts 2pm to 6pm. There is a walk from one side of the harbour to the other between Port (Immigration) police, customs, then Port Authority. No one stop shop here.

On to Rhodes and anchored near the main harbours. Rhodes main town is built around the castle of the Knights of St John - again there are many markets and Tavernas in the old town just a short walk from the anchorage. It was interesting walking round the castle with its large moat and long history.
There is a large plaque in the castle "honouring" the work of Mussolini in rebuilding during WW11 occupation.
