Assos

Assos is a small harbour on the N/W side of Cephalonia . A very nice small traditional village that must seen if you sail in the area . The massive fort on the peninsula offers a great view to the walkers who will attempt a walk at the sunset

Approach Assos      (38°22’80N / 020°32’20Ε WGS84 )

From N you will see the massive fort which is on the peninsula and as you sail closer you will locate  the houses and the short mole

Mooring

Go stern or bows-to the mole with a long line ashore .You must  keep  distance from the mole which is bordered by rocks, care must be taken . You can also stay in the bay on free anchoring or with a long line to the rocks , the bay is quite deep 7-12m but the holding is not good everywhere so is advisable to let out  as much scope as possible. Try to delay your visit on N-N/W winds , the swell makes the place uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous
