DAYS IN CORUNA, 17TH JUNE

On arriving in Coruna we anchored in a small sheltered bay on the East shore of the port. After an overnight rest we moved across the port to Coruna Marina.
It was surprising how few yachts were in the marina (this is a major staging port for yachts travelling between Western Europe and the Mediterranean) and we were glad of the nice welcome we received.
A lunch of local sardine fritters and deep fried peppers with white wine was organised as our arrival celebration.
Lots of walks and lovely meals (tapas) in the local restaurants ensued and we are still here.....
