Exciting times around Fethiye....

Yes we seem to have spent a lot more time than we planed around the Fethiye- Gocek area.

We have been moving between Fethiye and Gocek Bay (Skopea Limani), with the occasional day trip to the anchorage in Gocek, to pick up supplies and boat items.  There is a fully stocked floating shop (including ice creams) that comes around to all the anchorages so in theory you would never have to leave the bay!

The temperatures have still been in the mid 30's but with a large swimming pool out the back it has not been too uncomfortable. I think we are getting acclimatised. It helps that the humidity is generally below 50%. Now towards the end of August the nights are getting cooler and we often don't need the fans.

Just another day on the water....

 We have spent quite a bit of time discovering the delights in Fethiye and surrounding areas. It is an amazing area, surrounded by high mountains (snow covered in winter) and with a very wide cultural mix. It is possible to experience everything from tourist beaches (mainly white, tattooed British) through to a small Turkish farming village, all within a few kilometres.
