The huge inland sea of the Mediterranean presents wonderfully diverse cruising opportunities, but far from being a calm lake it can also deliver a few surprises to the unwary. In The RYA Book of Mediterranean Cruising, Rod Heikell provides first-hand advice on sailing these enticing waters. From tips on anchoring, berthing bow or stern-to, what weather to expect, facilities and the costs of keeping a boat there, to advice on navigation, popular routes, formalities and what to expect ashore, each country around the Med is covered - including a section on shoe-string cruising for those on a tight budget. This book will prove invaluable to Mediterranean novices and old-hands alike.
