Many people like to visit the amazing Greek islands on a gulet cruise.

This beautiful, bustling Greek town is not far from Çeşme in Turkey and has many great taverns that can be visited, located right on the waterfront.

Chios also has many medieval villages that are particularly interesting to experience, especially Anavatos, a so-called “ghost village” named after settlers abandoned the town in 1822.

St. John the Divine dictated the Apocalypse in Patmos, which is rich in religious history – it has over 300 churches and 2700 residents!

Apart from its sacred background, Patmos also has some amazing views and gorgeous beaches – we recommend Taverna Agora near the monastery for a truly superb feast.

It is thought that Odysseus was shipwrecked on Lipsi on his return voyage from Troy – and here for almost seven years he was “charmed” by the island, or the siren, Calypso.

Today, Lipsi’s sirens come in the form of amazing beaches and culture.

We recommend Taverna Calypso!

Not far from the coast from Lipsi, Leros was home to the Italian Navy in the 20 th Century for some time.

The residents of Leros have generations upon generations of families who have also lived and worked in the same area.

Leros is part of the Greek Dodecanese islands and is home to a Byzantine castle.

Pserimos is best to visit during April and Ocotober when the weather is a little cooler and the sea is warmer.

The island is known for its abundance of locally-grown olives and capers (delicious!) and a famous 2 nd Century Aphrodite Temple.

Ah, Kos. A truly beautiful, natural wonder in itself.

As one of the Dodecanese islands, it has some amazing beaches and interesting inland treks.

As the birthplace of Hippocrates, Kos is rich in historical culture.

The Temple of Asclepion, which is thought to be a healing temple, is a definite attraction worth visiting.

Nisyros is one of the Dodecanese Greek islands and is a quiet, beautiful island that houses a still-active volcano which can be visited throughout the year.

Inhabitants of the island have built their villages around the craters caused by the volcano, whose last eruption occurred in 1888.

Tilos has some wonderful nature and just under 800 residents on its small surface.

Relatively kept hidden away from the busy tourist crowds, it really is a slice of paradise.

There are lots of things to see in Tilos, from ancient acropolis to dwarf elephant fossils from the Pleistocene era.

Rhodes Town

While Rhodes is quite popular with tourists (it’s the largest of the Dodecanese islands), there are still quiet spots and bays along the coastline.

It features an ancient castle once inhabited by Hospitaller knights during the late 15 th and early 16 th century.

Rhodes has many exquisite restaurants, but the Taverna Christina is not to be missed.

Symi is just a small stretch from Marmaris and Rhodes, and though small in stature has an abundance of culture and history to offer.

You can view the straits from the town where Spartan fleets conquered Athenians in 411 BC.

The island also has a monument in celebration of the victory.

Symi is the is a place to go to enjoy Greek cuisine, which you can experience right near the harbour.

What is a Gulet?

A Gulet is a traditional Turkish wooden sailing yacht that is designed explicitly for cruising along the beautiful Turkish coast. These vessels are known for their elegant design, spacious interiors, and comfortable accommodations. Gulets typically range in size from 15 to 40 meters and can accommodate anywhere from 6 to 20 passengers.

Gulets are built with a combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern amenities, offering a perfect blend of authenticity and comfort. Each Gulet is unique in terms of design and layout. Still, they generally feature cosy cabins with en-suite bathrooms, a spacious deck for sunbathing and dining, and a fully equipped kitchen where the onboard chef prepares delicious meals.

The beauty of a gulet lies in its ability to provide an intimate and personalized cruising experience. Unlike larger cruise ships, gulets can access smaller and more secluded bays and coves, allowing passengers to explore hidden gems inaccessible to other vessels. With their friendly and experienced crew, gulets offer a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making you feel at home throughout your journey.

We have just returned from a fantastic two weeks in Turkey, organised by Gulet Escapes. We broke two weeks at The Four Reasons in Yalikavak by having 3 nights away from the hotel on board Flas 7 sailing east from Bodrum and visitng Sedir island and English Harbour. It was the best holiday we have ever had in the Mediterranean! The hotel was excellent with super staff and the gulet was very comfortable. Highly recommended!!!! A thoroughly professional and personal service from your organisation, we are singing your praises to all that will listen. We are so satisfied with the both the service provided by Gulet Escapes and the accommodation on land and sea that we would happily act as brand ambassadors or references. Lee from Surrey

‘Total Disgrace’: Anger, Frustration as Mass Heating Failures Across Russia Leave Thousands in the Cold

P ODOLSK, Moscow region – Residents throughout Russia affected by unprecedented winter heating outages in recent days have expressed their frustration and urged local authorities to restore heating in their homes.

In Podolsk, a town some 30 kilometers south of the capital Moscow, at least 149,000 residents — nearly half of its population — were left without heating when a heating main burst at a nearby private ammunition plant.

“It’s a total disgrace. There is no heating and no hot water. We have to sleep in sleeping bags,” Yuri, a local resident, told The Moscow Times.

“I have no words to describe how bad the situation is," said Yuri, who declined to provide his surname. "We have had no heating for almost six days."

Heating issues have affected residents in the Moscow region, where temperatures have plunged to as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius in the past week, as well as people in the Far East Primorye region , the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg , Penza , the southern Voronezh and Volgograd regions and more.

In the Tver region, a group of residents filmed an appeal to President Vladimir Putin, saying that they “are freezing from the cold” in the village of Novozavidovsky.

“We're literally being killed by the cold,” a woman in the video said, adding that they have been sending requests to local authorities since September after their houses were connected to a boiler room whose power was reportedly insufficient.

“This is some kind of torture and extermination of the population 100 kilometers from Moscow,” she added.

Residents of the Moscow region town of Elektrostal lit a fire in the street to draw the authorities’ attention to the heating problem.

“It’s impossible to stay in our houses. We're freezing!” a group of women in the video said.

Suffering from subzero temperatures, residents are placing the blame on local authorities and utility services for failing to take necessary precautions and not taking action to resolve the situation.

“We are sending complaints everywhere but no one listens to us. We have portable heaters working in every room, but the temperature inside is still 10 degrees Celsius,” Yelena from Podolsk said.

“There is a clinic and a hospital, as well as kindergartens, where there is no heating. And we have no answers, no assistance, no explanation,” Yelena added.

Podolsk authorities opened temporary heating centers and declared a state of emergency.

Local authorities linked the heating problems to the fact that the town is heated by a boiler plant owned by the Klimovsk Specialized Ammunition Plant, a private ammunition factory and one of the largest weapon cartridge production enterprises in the country.

“The facility is under tight security conditions, which limits our ability to oversee winter preparations,” the Moscow region’s Vice Governor Yevgeny Khromushin said last week. “We were unaware of the problem for nearly a day.”

An unidentified Moscow region official and two senior executives at the plant were arrested on suspicion of providing unsafe services, Russia’s Investigative Committee, which probes major crimes, said in a statement Tuesday.

Investigators said that Podolsk’s deputy mayor was accused of misusing authority by issuing a readiness certificate for the boiler house at the plant.

In the neighboring Tver region, the authorities opened a criminal case over the laundering of over 84 million rubles ($938,993) in heating bills paid by residents, the Astra Telegram channel reported this week, citing unidentified sources. According to investigators, the heads of the local water intake and boiler house misappropriated the heating payments for personal use.

Reacting to the heating failures, Putin on Tuesday asked Emergency Situations Minister Alexander Kurenkov to provide heat and electricity to the affected residents.

The outages appear to be the latest effect of several decades of crumbling infrastructure in Russia which have been linked to endemic corruption and mismanagement.

The overall decay of Russia's municipal infrastructure surpassed 70% in 2022, the pro-Kremlin newspaper Izvestia reported .

According to Sergei Pakhomov, head of the State Duma’s Construction, Housing and Utilities Committee, water pipes that were 90 years old or even older were still in use as recently as two years ago in some cases.

Housing, utilities and communal services are a common source of problems for Russians during the winter.

In St. Petersburg, residents regularly complain about extensive ice coverage on city streets and sidewalks, with many people ending up in the hospital over the years due to slipping and falling accidents.

In the Siberian republic of Khakassia, two villages were left without electricity last month due to apparent issues with outdated communication systems.

In the winter of 2020, five people in the Perm region were killed after a pipe burst.

When asked about the latest heating outages, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov acknowledged the problems and linked them to poor municipal infrastructure, saying that people “had to endure a lot of inconvenience in the cold and without electricity.”

"Despite all the titanic efforts to update all housing and communal services systems, there's still a certain part that remains considerably deteriorated. These programs will continue, but it is impossible to update all pipes and all housing and communal services systems in 10-15 years,” Peskov said.

As for now, residents affected by heating issues appear to lack optimism that the problems will be solved efficiently.

"It's been a week since we've had heating, and the temperature in my apartment is around 11 degrees Celsius,” Podolsk resident Lidiya told The Moscow Times.

“Unfortunately, no one knows when it will be repaired,” she added.
