Day 113 – So many yachts

Pamukkale to Bodrum - Hotel Gulec

We bused to Bodrum, which is a resort town on the Aegean Sea. Bodrum is a very commercialized town – tourists everywhere and boats galore – we’ve never seen so many yachts in the one place, at one point we couldn't tell if there was any water there.

We walked along the foreshore, up to the marina and then back past Bodrum Castle (which we didn’t visit as it was closed). Past the castle we walked along “Bar Street” – lots of shops and restaurants, many of them opening onto the beach.

It was sunny and quite warm, and the water was very inviting - lovely and crystal clear – but the rocks and lack of sand meant we weren’t in a hurry to go for a swim, the closest we got was our nice dinner at one of the seaside restaurants!
