Monday 10 April
Thanks to our early morning wake-up call from the very helpful Charlie, the crew were soon up and about to putter ashore in l’arrêt to explore this lovely island. 
The wind was cool but the warm sunshine made the turquoise seas sparkle, and this early in the season few visitors were around to crowd us. They walked around Peninnis Head lighthouse, trying to identify some of the local flora and fauna, and enjoyed a wonderful al fresco lunch overlooking Porth Cressa bay at the delightful ‘dibble & grub’: anyone remember ‘Trumpton’ from the late 1960s?
