The weather stayed nasty, reminding me more of my northern latitude North Sea backyards than the – often apt - turquoise Mediterranean Sea image. The swell never really cleaned up until it got dark, but the bay nevertheless had again shown what it is capable to make out of a decent swell. And as the forecast for the upcoming Sunday still looked very good, this was good news.
