Explore: Mourtos
General Info
Just 10NM south of Platarias, this port is opposite the southern tip of Corfu. There are three off-lying island which offer several anchorages.
Position: 39°24.46’N, 20°14.17’E (harbor entrance)
Docking
Moor stern-to to the town quay. Ensure the anchor is well dug in. Strong W or NW winds cause a surge and care is needed to keep clear of the quay.
Two alternative anchorages are;
- Monastery Bay – to the north-west of the harbor
- Middle Bay – south of the harbor.
Make sure the anchor penetrates the weed and the mud will provide good holding.
