After a nice, slower crossing than we are used to - given that the wind was from behind we decided to put the sails (genoa & main) in scissors for most of the crossing and it worked perfectly well - we arrived on Symi island. We first did the “touristic - photo taking” tour of its main harbour (which we decided not to go into as we feared it might be too noisy and apparently they charge a lot for Greek standards) in Symi town which, with its colourful houses and buildings and particularly architecture do not let you (at least us) indifferent.  We then motored to the next bay  in the very beautiful fisherman’s bay and port of “Pedi” to moor alongside the quay (the privilege of being early in the season). Shortly after we arrived we learnt that a local bus was leaving soon to go into the main town of Symi - so we took it.
