Ölüdeniz Plajı

Our host Ahmed put us on an earlier tourist boat with his friends instead of the local water ferry as we were worried we would miss our bus to Kabak. Being out of season, the buses were only running 3 times a day, with the last one being at 5pm. The tourist boat made one stop at the Blue Cave, and then headed to Oludeniz. We literally made our Dolmas (taxi shuttle) by 5 minutes! The taxi drivers drive hellishly fast, and on the wrong side of the road, and around blind corners. Far worse than in SA! We arrived safely in Kabak as the sun was setting. Kabak is a tiny village with no shops, located up a mountain side, with no one about! We walked down and back up a steep road (legs burning) after being directed to 4 different places, before finding our accommodation, called Goat Bungalow. The entrance was in disarray with scaffolding, bricks, an empty pool, weeds, an ashtray with a half smoked cigarette and empty beer on a table. Noah's eyes were wide and I imagined the worst. A smiling guy, named Emray, dressed in dusty jeans and t-shirt came to meet us (after the neighbour phoned him). He took us through the chaos around to the other side, down a small path, lined with wild daisies and poppies, to a row of simple wooden cabins, perfectly positioned with the most breathtaking view above the Mediterranean. Yay! Goat Bunglow did not disappoint! 😅Baca selengkapnya
