Inishbofin-Clare Island-Westport, 28-30 July

 On 28 July, we departed from Inishbofin to Clare Island, a short 15 nautical miles ride. The Island is guarding the entrance of the Clew bay.

Clare Island is a small paradise for its 150 inhabitants and thousands of visitors...

Encounter with dolphins on the way to Inishbofin, 26-27 July

 From Roundstone we head North to the island of Inishbofin. As we departed from Roundstone, a herd of dolphins swam up all around us. Unforgettable experience!

Galway to Roundstone, Ireland - 22/25 July 2021

Deprived from sailing on Belisama for the 2021 season because of needed maintenance, I joined Fañch & Valérie on Cybèle 17, en route from Ireland to Iceland, through the Faroe Islands. A 2200 nautical miles ride!

I flew from Croatia to Dublin, then commuted to Galway where Cybèle 17 picked me up.
