Night Sail to Gocek

We left Rhodes not long before midnight night before last and sailed through the night arriving at Gocek just after sunrise. The night sail was lovely. There's something magical about sleeping under the stars and moon on the deck of a moving boat.


Gocek is an odd little town. The marina is the most posh I have ever seen with marble bathrooms, beautifully manicured grounds and even a valet to park your boat ;-) The little village next to the marina looks like something Disney built. It is rather sterile with perfect little shops and restaurants neatly placed. Someone has clearly put a great deal of money into this place. There's even a waterfront housing development with gorgeous western style homes. Anyway, it was a fine place to sleep and work the day away. Everyone was spent after being up all night.
