What a great day. Glenn went for a swim in the ocean that was like glass first thing this morning. As it was a day where nothing was planned by Insight a few if us chose to go into the town and do a 2 hour oat ride around the coast. There are 17 of us and we travel into town via 4 taxis.
At the marina we negotiate a price for a 2 hour cruise. Works out about 16 lira each. We all get settled at the front if the boat. It's a good opportunity to get to know some of the group better.
Erica and her 10 yo son Alex from Sydney are travelling with her mum.

Pat and Shirley from USA
Lyn and Maureen from Perth
Charles from Perth.
The coast is quite rugged and dotted with pirate caves. There are 3 waterfalls that drop directly into the ocean. At the 3rd and largest waterfall we are able to dive off the side of the boat and go for a swim. For me it was more of a huge belly flop but once in the water and I resurfaced it was lovely just swimming around near the boat. The water was clear but over 300 meters deep.
Back on the boat we return the way we came and have a very relaxing cruise back to the Marina.
While in the old town we go for a walk up and down the arrow winding streets lined with shops. We have a very expensive coffe and beer on a cliff top cafe and a very cheap lunch at the Bahce kafe ( garden Cafe).
The afternoon is for swimming in the ocean, laying at the beach, swimming in the pool, repacking our bags, wandering along the beach front for a per dinner beer, another ore dinner beer with the group at the hotel and dinner flowed bay walk on the promenade and bed.
A great day, weather perfect.
Back on the bus tomorrow.
