"The Cape Horn of the North"

Today we passed Sandhammaren, the SE corner of Skåne. According to 'the books', it is known as the 'Cape Horn of the North', due to the many ships that have been lost there. Today it did not live up to its name, it was all relatively calm:





Also this nice ship that we encountered will have passed it unscathed:





We are now in Ystad and plan to stay here tomorrow. It is predicted to be a bit windy, but even if it is not we like a break before continuing. The atmosphere in the marina is nice, lots of German, plus some Danish and Dutch boats, not that many Swedes. This is clearly 'a stop on the way home'. There are also lots of ferries, to Poland, Germany and the Danish island of Bornholm.
Tomorrow, we'll explore the town itself.
