Tuzla - remote Turkey cruising doesn't get any better! (Sailing Dakini - Leave to Roam Ep. 101)
We finally make it to Tuzla having tried to anchor here twice before and found it too busy. It is fair to say we were not disappointed. This place is incredible! From the crystal clear 2m depth, to the greenery, the abundant friendly turtles and the smashing spearfishing this place has it all.
Yes it got a bit busier but everyone was so friendly and respectful. We even managed to hoist the mobile phone up the mast to get enough reception for the football and rugby. This place was magic and we will remember it forever.

Al, from New Zealand and Kel from Australia met through work in 2010 and have been together ever since. Always infected by the travel bug they finally decided to head off on an adventure and started with Vietnam and Laos before heading to Sri Lanka, India, then Cambodia and Indonesia. Their mission is to explore as many off the beaten track places as possible through a slow travel philosophy on a tight budget.
UPDATE!!! After a few years of saving (thanks Covid) they finally did it. They now own DAKINI, a gorgeous Lagoon 421, and are (re) learning to sail while exploring the Mediterranean.

We are Kel and Al, a couple from New Zealand and Australia who have always had a passion for travel. In January 2018 we left our full time jobs and started to travel the world. We spent two years travelling on a budget through South East Asia documenting our adventures as we went before we found a new dream, to buy a boat! Fours years of hard work scrimping and saving led us to our dream. We introduce you to our home Dakini. She is a 2010 Lagoon 421 and we love her. Purchased in Greece we started our adventure cruising the greek islands. Two years later we have sailed all over Greece, Italy, Turkey and Malta with a winter in Tunisia. Our plan for 2026 is to explore Albania, Italy, Malta, France and Spain before the biggest adventure of our lives, crossing the Atlantic around New Years. Exciting times ahead.
