I can't tell you much about this island stop because the trip to the island had to be aborted owing to dangerous sea conditions.
This is a designated 'tender' stop where the ship anchors off shore and the passengers make their way to the shore via lifeboats. Currently there is 2m swell on the harbour and it is considered too dangerous to ferry passengers back and forth.
However a tender did make it to shore so the ship cannot depart until everyone is back on board. At this stage we are 2 passengers short!
A revised program is being hastily arranged to keep everyone occupied while the ship sits in the port waiting for those two passengers to be returned on board.
We will then set sail for our next port Kusadasi and the historical site 'Ephesus' which some people say is even more stunning than Pompeii.
We are due there at 7am tomorrow morning.
