The Crazy Waters Bridge in Chalkis sits at the narrowest point between Evia and the mainland, where the strait is only about 38 meters wide. Because so much water is forced through this tiny opening, extremely strong currents are created — the reason sailors call it the “Crazy Waters.” The bridge is in the middle of the city and opens only once a day to avoid disrupting the constant road traffic. Boats may only pass at slack tide, the brief moment every six hours when the water is calmest. That’s why sailors often go through at strange times like 1:30 or 3:00 a.m. While waiting, boats are not allowed to tie up along the quay because the turbulence is so strong that it would be dangerous. Instead, everyone must anchor in the bay and wait for instructions from Port Control. We anchored there with about fifteen other boats and waited until slack tide at night. At midnight, Port Control suddenly called all boats in order — we were number three. Passing the bridge in the dark was surreal: strong currents below, quiet city lights above. The bridge didn’t lift; it actually slid sideways into the quay walls, disappearing completely. Once through, we moored safely just 100 meters further in the city. Experiencing this natural phenomenon at night, in such a narrow and powerful channel, was something I will not quickly forget!

Even with the very best of planning you may be surprised by what you encounter when sailing across the vast ocean. Join us aboard our Lagoon 42 for our post hurricane season sail from Curaçao onward towards the U.S. Virgin Islands as we run into some nasty storms and unexpected surprises from US Border Patrol. Experience life on the wind, join us for a sail 👉🏽 https://cruisenautic.com Do you love travel, does your urge for adventure leave you longing to break free to live the boat life? In 2017 we decided we would do just that, so we sold everything we owned and started out for a new life at sea. We are two USCG 100 Ton Captains who sailed our Lagoon 42 Catamaran out of France and over the last 5+ years we have crossed the Atlantic and completed several circumnavigations of the Caribbean. Our winter base is the Virgin Islands where we offer a variety of sailing and dive experiences aboard CruiseNautic. Music: Diabuleria by KaleidoSea - Artlist Licensed
