Through the mighty Bardsey Sound to Pwhelli

Bardsey Sound beckoned us early this morning and we were relieved tofind a flat calm when we awoke.
We motored the 12 miles down the coast and arrived just after high water whilst it was still calm. 
Despite the peaceful sea, the Sound was a cacophony of  breaking waves swirling water and a strong tideThankfully we emerged unscathed and had a lovely sail along the the South coast of the Lleyn Peninsula into Cardigan Bay



After a short wait at anchor we are now in the massive marina that is Pwhelli



The town is remarkably pleasant and was largely developed in the 19th Century as a tourist destination thanks to the railway, which still runs to Machynlleth
Tomorrow is hopefully the last day of our journey to Aberystwyth!
