Gulet cruise, Turkey - October 2009
Sunday, November 01, 2009
Sorry about long absence from blogs, have had a busy season with another tour starting on Tuesday so now trying to get up to date!
On the 'time-out' side ....had a last minute opportunity of a week's gulet cruise with Globespan, so off I went with friend Bob from Edinburgh airport to Dalaman airport in early October. The gulet cruise was based at Marmaris and cruised along the coast from there to Fethiye, calling at several quiet bays en route. We met our six fellow passengers the following day and got on famously with them all. There was a mixture of Scots, Irish, English and Welsh. Two of them (plus the Captain) were keen on the fishing and we managed to land an interesting catch including tuna, octopus and a large crab!
The highlight of the dining (all other meals included) was a wonderful BBQ of fresh fish which the captain had bought on our behalf in the Fethiye market and cooked expertly by Eno.
Swimming was magnificent and also the opportunity to see the Lycian tombs.
Relaxing with plenty of sea breezes - this was the way to see the coastline ...... I am well and truly hooked!
