A 41-ft Lagoon 410 S2 catamaran sails 65 nautical miles from Zakynthos to the Bay of Pylos, Greece, seeking shelter ahead of an incoming storm.Watch The crew anchors in the northern section of the bay, noting that the nearby Gialova Lagoon is too shallow for safe entry.0:48 During the wait for weather, the crew hikes to the local fortress ruins and explores a nearby sea cave containing stalactites and stalagmites.1:11 As winds increase, the crew relocates the vessel to the main harbor of Pylos for better protection.13:37 They secure the anchor by backing down with both engines, successfully holding through a storm that brings 47-knot gusts and heavy Saharan dust.15:28 While anchored, the crew visits a local chandlery in Pylos to restock supplies before departing for Methoni.14:38 The experience confirms that Pylos offers reliable heavy-weather shelter, provided vessels anchor in the main harbor rather than the shallower, more exposed northern reaches of the bay.
