Nuri's beach bar and Restaurant
We anchored off and took a line ashore near this
spot and then Jacky had a swim to find out what the quay facilities
were.
It turned out that a boat could moor for free with
water and power thrown in! We duly moved and have been here for 3
nights.
The owner - Ramazon is a charming
friendly guy who has developed the head of the bay into a lovely quiet beach
facility with a nice restaurant serving home made
reasonably priced food and snacks. The beach area
has been carefully landscaped with gazebos, sun beds, shrubs and hammocks dotted
around an old olive grove.
In addition there are two small log chalets which
are available for hire. The only access is by boat and there are regular water
taxi's from Kas which bring day visitors here.
The quay has been built this year and enables one
to anchor and tie up either stern or bows to which suitable cleats for a strong
mooring. This place is lovely so don't tell too many people
or it will too crowded! We have spent most of our
time on the beach (no sand thank goodness) making use of the lovely shaded areas
and swimming in the designated area which is buoyed off from the
bay
to stop boats from coming too close. We took the
water taxi to Kas yesterday and found this to be a delightful place though the
harbour itself is very crowded with trip boats and not much room for
yachts.
The town has some lovely old world buildings lining the narrow lanes with better quality products
than the usual tourist stuff. Plenty of cafes bars and restaurants which had
reasonable prices too. Certainly a place to take a holiday in as there seemed to
be good activities on offer for those that wanted to do more than sit on a beach
with some of the historic sites nearby and also outdoor activities
like canoeing, diving, trekking and cliff parachuting.
On our return to the bay we were
pleased to meet up with Loi and David from
Salty Dawg who had arrived and anchored off the quay (from the
EMYR).
We are dragging ourselves away tomorrow and
starting to head east again towards Alanya but will certainly return here in the
autumn.
