Belle Ile

26 May 2019

Belle Ile always lives up to her name! After a splendid night of active sailing, we dropped our sails in the harbor of Sauzon and anchored there. After lunchtime, most people went on land to explore the island. Some of them went hiking, others rented bikes. In the meanwhile, the crew lifted the anchor and sailed towards Le Palais, to pick up the guests again there.

The next day, we left again. Soon, we hoisted all the sails and sailed into the bay of Quiberon. There we tacked twice, and we have sailed the entrance of the Golf du Morbihan. Exactly as expected, there was a strong current. We tried to get as far as possible into the Golf du Morbihan under full sail. After quite a while the current was too strong, and we were only sailing 0,4 knots so we turned on the engine.

This morning, the guests disembarked. Now we are preparing the ship to sail daytrips in this gorgeous area.
