Our first night at anchor. We had to motor down to Velika Luka because there was not enough wind to sail, isn’t that always the way. But once there it really is paradise bay, Velika means large and Luka means bay or cove, next door is Mala Luka which means small cove!! Mala Luka is too shallow for us at just over 1 metre but a few motor boats were at anchor in there.
The Konoba had lights on so they must be open we shall have to check it out tomorrow.
Konoba means small bar, usually one that only serves drinks and snacks. A boy ran out from the bar to take our lines, very helpful.
It’s called “La Spuz” which means the snail, I think that refers to the pace of life here.
Well it was definitely worth the agro of getting the dingy and outboard off, the beer was cold and the surroundings were amazing, like being in the Caribbean.
We asked about food and were told they cooked what ever they had on their equivalent of a BBQ, the large outside fire in a purpose built open fronted oven.
The bar was made from the side of an old boat and everything was made from abandoned bits and pieces.
The cab of an old boat served as a sort of plant shelter.
The sewing machine and table had all sorts of oils and condiments.
Not sure what this was but now it seemed to be a good place for a siesta.
After a couple of beers Dave moved onto white wine, too hot for red!!
Then after a very pleasant afternoon we headed back to the boat.
It’s out there somewhere, now which one is it?
