The "Kiran Poyraz" (The Devastating Northeaster)
A local Wind

  To the left the wondereful Akbük, as seen from the road. Poor provisioning and poor overland connection, but a most lovely bay. Beware of local winds. To the right is a tiny boatyard between Akbük and Gökova proper. perhaps welcoma for emergencies, but more than anything the romance of the "resting" boats surrounded with thick forest.  
  Mount Kiran, as seen from the Cleopatra Islands. Note the mountain road from Akbük to the plateau - a pleasure for off-roading.

Gökova Proper (Gökce Ova, Cova, Akyaka, N 370 02,8' E 0280 19,6' ). Good provisioning, good overland transport to Mugla and to Marmaris and Fethiye.
Consult Piri Reis
