12 Islands to St Nicholas Island
This morning we will cruise to Bedri Rahmi Bay, where we will go ashore and walk to the amazing King's Tomb before taking a dip at Cleopatra's Bath, said to have been a wedding gift to Cleopatra from Marcus Antonius. We will then move on to Oludeniz Beach to swim in the amazing blue lagoon. We will anchor close to large rocks, and those who are brave can try cliff diving. In the afternoon we will cruise to St Nicholas Island - there are loads of water sports to keep you busy, or try gozleme, the Turkish pancake. The best sunset in Turkey can be found at the top of St Nicholas Island.
