Dragging Anchors And Scraping Transoms

Alanya is an odd place for yotties to visit. On the one hand it is full of German and Russian package holiday makers, basking on the most stunning of sandy beaches (a rarity in Turkey). It lacks local anchorages, suffers sloppy waters and rarely hosts 'good' sailing weather, located in the lull that is Antalya Bay. Oh and it doesn't yet have a completed marina. On the other hand it boasts some stunning views of the Taurus mountains and the 'old town' and castle are well worth a visit. Annoyingly it also has a great brewery, which I missed. How the hell did that happen?
