A great interactive map of the voyage of Odysseus (a must for Med -bound cruisers), some ripples from the film Blackfish, and our favorite Penguin makes an astute observation worth keeping in mind...
I've been hearing a lot of chatter about the new taxes for boats in Greece of late and, while it's depressing, I certainly don't see a need to get angry over it.
That said, it is a big factor in deciding where to cruise in the Med these days.
The big problem with the Med area is it has become problematic for a variety of reasons but the biggie is the Schengen treaty makes visiting at a cruisers pace almost impossible without jumping through some serious hoops and lengthy side trips to restart your Schengen clock.
Still, it's well worth the hassle...
