Hi from Marina di Ragusa
We came down from Livorno last summer, the cruising guide doesn't show many anchorages on the mainland, so we came down via Corsica and Sardinia, which do have some anchorages and are definitely worth visiting. We did not stop at Elba or other smaller islands, but would like to in the future. We were on the east coasts of Corsica and Sardinia, but understand that the west coasts are quite interesting as well. Our cruising plans for this summer are a bit restricted as we have some issues to work on back in the US, but we are hoping to get to Croatia at least with a stop in Albania to reset the VAT clock.
