    The beautiful island of Meis lies a few kilometres off Kaş. It is wonderfully relaxed, truly gorgeous and always worth a visit. One of our very favourite places.

    Although a faulty engine effected our cruise, it most certainly didn't spoil it, and we were privileged to experience something really rather special as we visited two fabulous Greek islands.

    Curry, chips, churros and cake. Lots of cake! Here's a heartfelt tribute to my favourite C-based foods. More cake anyone?

    Split in two by the Bosphorus, Istanbul is one of the greatest cities on earth, possessing an extraordinary history, fabulous architecture and an energetic restlessness. What a place!

    Lycian Legacy – Pinara

    15 March 2022 / Comments Off on Lycian Legacy – Pinara

    Tucked away in the mountains and dominated by a dramatic red cliff peppered with dozens of rock-cut tombs, there's a dream-like quality to the ancient city of Pinara. It's one of my favourite places in Turkey.

    10 February 2022 / Comments Off on Fethiye Boatyards

    If you want your bottom scraped, a paint job, rotting timbers replaced or an engine refit, best book a spot at the boatyards beyond Karagozler. It's a fascinating place where traditional skills live on. Always well worth a visit.
