The East Med Yacht Race is due into Girne on 23 May, anyone know the ETA of the boats. I have seen 8am but need confirmation of a sensible time for me to be there to see a load of them come in.



Thanks

They usually start arriving around 9am After the tour bost leave, and it takes almost the day before the last one docks, they will be shared out between the old Harbour and the new harbour.

They are arriving in the New Harbour, as the fishermen have refused to move!!

The fishermen never move as it is to shallow where most of them are, it is only the Daily tour boats that have to leave usually after they have taken the morning customers not all go but most do. Last year there was about 1/3 in the Old harbour the rest in the New Harbour.

It is very pretty when they are in with all the flags flying, I recommend coming down to see them.
