18. STORMY NIGHT PASSAGE | Sailing from Greece to Croatia | Sailing the Med

The time has come to leave Greece and we set sail before dawn from Kassiopi, Corfu. Hugging the Albanian Coast, Jase soon hooks a fish and tests out the improvements he made to his rigging.

Pretty much our whole first day and night we are surrounded by storms. As we sail through minefields off the Albanian coast a large storm front encloses and we decide the only choice is to motor through it. Storms continue all around us as we sail through the night.

The following day brings a lot to be excited about. As we sail up past Montenegro the sun comes out and so too do about 30 dolphins. We are so stoked with that experience but then out of no where some much larger creatures approach the boat and we are lucky to experience an unusual animal encounter - Rissos Dolphins!

As the sun sets the wind drops and we are forced to motor through the night to Croatia. Jase gives a safety briefing, talking through the steps we are taking to stay safe during an overnight passage. It's a beautiful night with the moon and stars shining. Early in the morning and still in darkness we approach Dubrovnik, Croatia.

We check-in to Croatia with ease, pay the fees and are on our way to sailing this stunning country.

About us:

Our names are Jason and Tracey and we traded our house, cars, business, job and security for freedom, adventure, travel and living simply amongst nature and the seas on our 45 foot Hanse 445 sailing boat, Kawai.

We don't know exactly where the winds will take us at this stage but over the next year we hope to sail to Turkey, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia, Italy, Spain, Morocco, Gibraltar, Canary Islands and then across the Atlantic Ocean.

Jase loves making travel videos and we decided to upload to youtube to share our adventure. We really hope you enjoy and feel free to drop us a comment any time to chat or subscribe to follow along :)
