Grounded Castles & Floating Palaces Yachts crowd the waterfront promenade near the crusader Castle of St. Peter in Bodrum, Aegean Turkey as strollers check out the boats. A few of these craft are private floating palaces for the wealthy, others are comfortable weekend hobbies for successful Turkish entrepreneurs, but most are businesses: excursion boats for hire. If no one charters them for week-long Blue Voyage cruises, they take on passengers for day-sail excursions in the Aegean's sparkling waters. Whichever way you go—4-, 5- or 7-day day charter cruises or thrifty full-day excursions—go! Don't miss the beauties of Turkey seen from the sea. |
