Turkish Delights Our final destination was Bodrum, the true glitz of the Turkish Riviera, with bars, clubs, restaurants, fancy hotels, marinas, boatyards and so much more all skirting a beautiful bay that overlooks the Greek Island of Kos. Bodrum is a town that never sleeps but never seems too much, a fantastic place to use as a base for the summer as you’re so close to several Greek Islands as well as everything I have mentioned above. It’s a fantastic place to do a refit or even a quick bottom job but one thing is for sure: You’ll love it! The things I will remember most about Turkey are the people and their hospitality, the history lessons, the mystery, the food, the crystal clear waters, the climate, and the sunsets. I would strongly recommend a visit by boat if you’re in the Med. We never made it to the capital— 44 YACHT ESSENTIALS Ankara—but we did get to see Istanbul a couple of times. That’s another story... All in all, Turkey is one of my favorite countries. For cruisers, it’s a place you could spend a year and never be bored or broke. For yacht owners whose yacht is spending the summer in the Med, I would recommend at least a two to three-week trip along the southern coast. Nowhere is too small for even the biggest yacht. For the charterer, go and experience life onboard a traditional Turkish Gullet. You can’t beat its crew’s hospitality and local knowledge. And for yacht crew, just pray your boss falls in love with the place so you can spend as much time here as possible. There is so much to do with your time off, and if you’re a photographer like me, you will be in paradise.
