Sailing In Greece and Turkey

The Dodecanese islands of Greece and the Turquoise Coast of Turkey

Turkey - not so long ago the undiscovered gem of the Med - is becoming hugely popular as a holiday destination for northern europeans. The more well-known areas are becoming "touristed-out" fast - yes, McDonalds is here already!

Happily for us on sailboats - we can escape the mass tourist influence and find the still-lovely, uncrowded spots.

Our route along the Turquoise coast is full of contrasts; from tiny, one-family bays, inaccessible from the land - to little local towns like Datca, wi

We anchor off the ancient city of Knidos, and hike around amphitheatres dating back to 500BC; learn to belly-dance at Ogun's Place; lunch-and-swim in the beautiful pine-forested National Park - oh yes, and we do a bit of sailing too !
