stern-to mooring
Maybe this can help.
She reviewed all she had learned in sailing school and worried a great deal about the Mediterranean mooring, also called stern-to, which is akin to backing into a parking place.
What is known as Mediterranean mooring can be a little bit tricky for newcomers who are used to a different style of mooring in the US and the UK. In Greece the harbors are set up so that boats moor stern to rather than side-on or with the bow to the harbor. This takes a little practice, especially when there are side-winds.

Berthing
Greek yachts normally berth stern-to, although bows-to is also quite common. There are various advantages in this. For example, your yacht is more protected from the sudden swell often brought in by fast ferries and hydrofoils docking sometimes merely metres away. Also, you have more privacy, and people are less likely to step over your boat to reach theirs. When berthing stern-to, make sure you have all your fenders down and leave enough anchor chain to hold you against ferry swell.
