Coastal Caves
Epidaurus’ beauty knows no bounds. Just a short dingy ride past the ruins and citrus groves you’ll find yourself a few caves to tuck into and explore.

Epidaurus, Seven Dazzling Days
Our anchorage off the coast of the ancient city of Epidaurus turned out to be an adventurer’s dream. We nestled Bedouin into a quiet anchorage with a view of a Roman theater off our port side and an ancient sunken city off our starboard. There were sea caves to explore along its coastline and a …
Poros
Póros seems to be a town with a thousand stunning views. From high up at the clock tower, anchored in the bay, and every nook and cranny in between—a great place to start adventuring with Kris aboard.
Set Out for Ithaka
While on Ithica, I had to share a favorite poem by C.P. Cavafy Translated by Edmund Keeley As you set out for Ithaka hope your road is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery. Laistrygonians, Cyclops, angry Poseidon—don’t be afraid of them: you’ll never find things like that on your way as …
A Big Jog to a Little Waterfall
A shoutout to our new friends on svPaloma. They posted their visit to this waterfall earlier in the season and so we made a point to hunt it down and check it out after transiting the Lefkas canal and settling in to Nidri. Once the big blows finally calmed down we decided the weather window …

Perfect because if there is anything Montenegro does best—besides epic mountains, crazy long tunnels, and jaw dropping scenery, it would be that they are the most chill country and people we’ve ever encountered. In a tiny little bay where …
Montenegrin Mulligan
Earlier in the summer, when we first came through Montenegro, we hired a driver to take us out to see a nearby lake that everyone told us must be seen. When we reached the lookout point, our Oregonian eyes deceived us. It didn’t really look all that must-see. From high upon a hill at a …
Unwelcome Wildlife
📩Dear Croatia, I’m very afraid to get out of the car. Sincerely, Bedouin’s 1st Mate
Salt & Stones
Our oldest daughter and her husband gave us four reasons why we needed to make a stop and stay in Ston on our way home. ONE, because they’ve been producing salt for over 2,000 years …so we went there and bought some. TWO, because they produce the finest oysters …so we …
