Yalikavak’s Charm

We have just returned from our third trip to Yalikavak and once again we had a wonderful time.

Wondering why our third trip well … It’s such a lovely place it draws us back. The village is small enough to have plenty going on both day and night. Whether its browsing the small shops, cay ( tea) at the local cafes, or picking up the freshly baked bread, nothing is hurried its all at a relaxed pace.

Turkish Night at Sofis Restaurant, Yalikavak

Having dined at Sofis Restaurant (and spent afternoons guzzling cocktails there) we decided to try out their ‘Turkish Night’ held every Thursday evening.  We were always impressed with the food and the friendly service in this beachfront eatery in the centre of Yalikavak and it sounded like good fun!

The Bodrum Peninsula

Yaliakavak old marina lined with restaurants offering beautiful sea viewsOk, I’ll admit it.  Before I first visited Turkey 6 years ago I was sceptical about going there.  My preconceptions were based on reading awful British magazine articles about middle aged women visiting resorts there and picking up young Turkish husbands who then proceeded to take all of their life savings.  I had heard about the busy resorts with lager louts, cheap cocktails and overly friendly bar staff and decided it wasn’t for me.  My first trip to the Bodrum Peninsula showed me just how wrong I had been!
