Wind W 14-20 knots, up to 1.5 m seas also from the west. It was mostly overcast with a bit of drizzle at one point. We left Port Haliguen half an hour before LW and passed through the rocky islets SE of Pointe du Conguel at slack water. The sailing from there was good with us close-hauled on port tack for most of the way. We passed many yachts sailing SE along the coast, some taking part in a regatta. It was busy at times! We anchored in 8 m at HW (5m) of Plage des Grands Sables together with 3 other yachts.

Sail back opposite to sail out! Started gently but by mid morning SW increased to 22kts. Fast crossing but nightmare coming in via Needles Channel before tide had turned. Wind now 30kts. Glad when we got past the bridge. Should have waited or used N Channel.
