Gran Tarajal to Morro Jable
27/11/07 20:05 Filed in: Fuerteventura | Canaries
Overnight the wind decreased and by morning conditions were quite settled.
The german yacht "Nena" from Hamburg anchored nearby.
The beach at Gran Tarajal.
We weighed anchor at 9:35 and had a good sail down the east coast of Fuerteventura in NE winds F3-5.
At 14:20 we passed Morro Jable lighthouse and the main resort.
We had intended to berth on the pontoons in Morro Jable harbour but the anchorage just to the right oh the harbour appealed.
At 15:15 we anchored off the beach at Morro Jable in 5.6m of water. A lovely spot. Two yachts, one Canadian and one Finnish were there and later "Aphrodite" that we had met in Puerto Castillo arrived.
The water was lovely and clear and I was able to dive down to see our anchor perfectly set.

"Kiriwina", "Aphrodite" and a Canadian yacht, Morro Jable anchorage.
My first attempt at photographing fish.
"Kiriwina" off Morro Jable" above water...
...and below water.
Later we took the dinghy and ate out ashore.
